bkerensabecause a new company is coming into their turf with better product at lower prices then they offer :P19:35
bkerensa$200 Ubuntu Notebooks that look and have specs like the Ultrabooks19:35
nhainesOoh, I'd pick one up.19:35

pleia2MarkDude: I have 400 CDs that need to get to LA by Friday19:38
pleia2I can put them in luggage, but hauling it all is going to be an interesting experiment19:38
bkerensaI agreed to consider becoming their new PHP developer though :D but I turned down a job handling Ubuntu Product QA and guiding them... I told them they need to start making Ubuntu TV's like its hot19:39
pleia2could also just ship them to nhaines today :)19:39
