[05:23] <Burgundavia> ^
[05:24] <tonyyarusso> nice
[07:08] <nixternal> Burgundavia: good deal on the planet spec. Why they made a deal out of something the entire blogosphere was blogging is beyond me, plus yesterday on CNBC they talked about an official release by Dell concerning the topic anyways
[07:08] <Burgundavia> nixternal: corporate embargo was the issue
[07:09] <nixternal> truthfully the issue was null, except in one case I feel where the actual employee blogged about it
[07:09] <nixternal> he should have known better
[07:12] <tonyyarusso> I think he honestly thought it had been okayd already
[07:12] <nixternal> very well could have been, but what happened today really irritated me as well as many others
[07:13] <tonyyarusso> yup
[07:13] <nixternal> that is why I have stayed off the planet all day today and yesterday, contemplating
[07:13] <tonyyarusso> I just re-planetified my post on the topic
[07:14] <nixternal> so I noticed
[07:14] <nixternal> I think you and Jerome were the first 2 I heard about being censored
[07:15] <Burgundavia> tonyyarusso self censored
[07:15] <nixternal> ahh
[07:15] <tonyyarusso> halfway
[07:15] <tonyyarusso> I made it not show on planet, but did not remove my post as some did
[07:16] <nixternal> trying to explain to people that this was in fact a big deal for Linux in the "CONSUMER" market has been a pain
[07:16] <Burgundavia> well, Dell is really playing it down
[07:16] <Burgundavia> their blog talks about previous offerings
[07:16] <Burgundavia> dell.com hs nothing
[07:16] <nixternal> granted you were always able to purchase Red Hate, SUSE, and at one time VA Linux on Dell equipment, none of them were consumer
[07:17] <nixternal> Red hate ey, hat that is
[07:18] <nixternal> I hope these new laptops they do will be cheaper than their current offerings, otherwise it won't go to far outside of our world
[07:18] <nixternal> HP/Compaq tried it a few years back and never lowered their prices
[07:18] <nixternal> so that little deal flopped
[07:18] <Burgundavia> according to dell they will be
[07:18] <tonyyarusso> Oh?
[07:18] <nixternal> granted there has been a lot of changes since then as well
[07:19] <nixternal> I sure hope so, however it might not be enough for me to purchase one just yet until Dell (Michael Dell) can get the company straightened back out
[07:19] <nixternal> which I sure hope he does
[07:19] <nixternal> before he left Dell was untouchable as they had great hardware, prices, and support
[07:19] <nixternal> he took that break and all hell broke loose
[07:20] <nixternal> HP/Compaq still has the deal that allows you to deny the EULA and get some cash back, that is why I purchased this lappy
[07:21] <nixternal> I wanted either an IBM or a Dell, but neither would work with me
[07:21] <nixternal> Dell offered the N series with subpar hardware at IBM prices, and IBM, well they have IBM prices :)
