pleia2 | Darkwing: when you get a chance, can you add to the wiki the hardware you're bringing demo-wise? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/Scale10x | 00:25 |
---|---|---|
pleia2 | philipballew added his name down for a laptop with Ubuntu, but then removed it, so I'l follow up with him to see if he's still able to bring one | 00:26 |
Darkwing | Yeah, I was going to get a list tonight of everything I was bringing and adding it all at once. | 00:27 |
pleia2 | perfect, thank you :) | 00:28 |
Darkwing | Yup | 00:31 |

bkerensa | MarkDude: I feel sorry for Zareason and System76 | 19:34 |
nhaines | bkerensa: why's that? | 19:35 |
nhaines | bkerensa: also what's the cool Ubuntu scoop you heard? | 19:35 |
bkerensa | because a new company is coming into their turf with better product at lower prices then they offer :P | 19:35 |
bkerensa | $200 Ubuntu Notebooks that look and have specs like the Ultrabooks | 19:35 |
nhaines | Ooh, I'd pick one up. | 19:35 |
MarkDude | Yes well... | 19:35 |
nhaines | I don't think anyone has compelling notebooks. The Zareason systems are very nice, though. | 19:36 |
bkerensa | nhaines: Yeah im rendering some video right now... hope to have that scoop out in the hour | 19:36 |
nhaines | bkerensa: yay! | 19:36 |
bkerensa | if Joey is around to click approve on my post :P | 19:36 |
MarkDude | Za got more screwedby Google and that Android not being fully open source | 19:36 |
bkerensa | yeah well the company tried to hire me.... | 19:36 |
pleia2 | MarkDude: are you going carpooling with grantbow to scale? | 19:37 |
bkerensa | Their COO was like we looked you up and saw you have major cred and really want you onboard.... We need a Ubuntu guy | 19:37 |
bkerensa | :D | 19:37 |
nhaines | bkerensa: send them to me! :P | 19:37 |
bkerensa | you would have to be up here in Portland and work in a cubicle | 19:38 |
bkerensa | :D | 19:38 |
nhaines | I can be here in LA and telecommute, but that's my final offer! :) | 19:38 |
bkerensa | lol | 19:38 |
MarkDude | grantbow, has NEVER got back to me | 19:38 |
* MarkDude has called him and everything | 19:38 | |
pleia2 | MarkDude: I have 400 CDs that need to get to LA by Friday | 19:38 |
pleia2 | I can put them in luggage, but hauling it all is going to be an interesting experiment | 19:38 |
bkerensa | I 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 hot | 19:39 |
pleia2 | could also just ship them to nhaines today :) | 19:39 |
* MarkDude will be there by the Fri | 19:39 | |
pleia2 | but if I can get them down there for free it would be optimal | 19:39 |
MarkDude | not sure how yet | 19:39 |
nhaines | haha | 19:39 |
nhaines | pleia2: you could do that. :) | 19:39 |
nhaines | bkerensa: I'm so tempted to just make Ubuntu TV boxes, but I don't know anything about actually doing that, so... : P | 19:40 |
MarkDude | Ride down is a bit of a hassle - Courtney is coming- and sexycatsinhats cant go due to school | 19:40 |
pleia2 | are you calling Courtney a hassle? | 19:41 |
pleia2 | :P | 19:41 |
MarkDude | No chris flaking pleia2 | 19:41 |
bkerensa | funny thing is this company apparently used to supply System76 with their hardware which is why they can offer laptops at a fraction of the cost of Sys and zareason | 19:41 |
pleia2 | MarkDude: ah, I see | 19:41 |
bkerensa | pleia2: You burned 400 cd's? | 19:43 |
bkerensa | :D | 19:43 |
pleia2 | bkerensa: no, pressed CDs from canonical | 19:43 |
bkerensa | ahh they gave you a bunch | 19:44 |
pleia2 | yeah | 19:44 |
