Hi Wi Fi
Hey, hey! I'm live from the Desktop Linux Summit press room. There was much controversy surrounding it, and when I made the committment to do my thing, I found it difficult to renege. Being caught between a rock and a hard place is not very fun, but I'll go on the record as saying: I'm a geek, and I don't get many opportunities to crawl out of my hole in San Francisco. Doc just showed up a few minutes ago, asked if there was wireless connectivity (nope), and then went back out to his car to get an AirPort. Then, we were told that MP3.com didn't want Wi-Fi because of security issues. Huh?! Not impressed. Not impressed at all. I promise you: we'll have access at Gnomedex III. That's the kind of geeks we are.

In summary: Desktop Linux Summit is WACK!

MP3.com doesn't want non-paying members either. They now limit you to three songs and cut off support to your page unless you join their paid program.
More about this on my website.

Jeez, mp3.com, no wireless? Oh but let us have CAT5 cables everywhere for folks to trip on. That's using yur noggin. I admit Chris, the Lindows laptop does look nice. the price is amazing.

While I don't like the little I've seen of Lindows, I respect you for sticking by your decision. And another topic, I need to find a way to make it to Gnomedex III. With no money. Across a good portion of the US. I don't think I'm gonna make it.

Man, I wish I had been able to get my WiFi to work — had to return 3 systems and am stuck tripping over wires :(
