[00:25] <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
[00:26] <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
[00:27] <Darkwing> Yeah, I was going to get a list tonight of everything I was bringing and adding it all at once.
[00:28] <pleia2> perfect, thank you :)
[00:31] <Darkwing> Yup
[00:31] <Darkwing> Working on the program right now :)
[03:09] <MarkDude> dragon, ping
[03:09] <Darkwing> Yay!
[03:10] <Darkwing> scale program cover finished.
[04:29] <Darkwing> pleia2: I don't know why... But I thought of you. http://chzsetphaserstolol.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/sci-fi-fantasy-star-wars-r-tutu.jpg
[05:28] <MarkDude> grantbow, ping
[05:38] <jyo> jtatum: Mt. View is next Thursday, yes?
[06:16] <pleia2> Darkwing: haha, that is awesome
[07:02] <Darkwing> That's nice.
[07:03] <Darkwing> Kubuntu and Edubuntu got 5 year LTS and Xubuntu got 3 year LTS for 12.04
[07:05] <pleia2> yep :)
[17:40] <jtatum> jyo: yep! :)
[19:34] <bkerensa> MarkDude: I feel sorry for Zareason and System76
[19:35] <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...
[19:36] <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....
[19:37] <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
[19:38] <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
[19:39] <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.  :)
[19:40] <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
[19:41] <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
[19:43] <bkerensa> pleia2: You burned 400 cd's?
[19:43] <bkerensa> :D
[19:43] <pleia2> bkerensa: no, pressed CDs from canonical
[19:44] <bkerensa> ahh they gave you a bunch
[19:44] <pleia2> yeah
[20:20] <bkerensa> nhaines: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/01/a-first-look-at-ctls-ubuntu-product-lineup/
[20:20] <bkerensa> there is the scoop :)
[20:27] <MarkDude> Doesnt this threaten those people that make FOSS computers out of cardboard also?
[20:29] <bkerensa> heh
[20:29] <bkerensa> people make PC's out of cardboard?
[20:31] <MarkDude> YEp
[20:32] <MarkDude> http://recomputepc.com/index.php
[20:45] <bkerensa> $600 for a carboard PC =o
[20:57] <MarkDude> I know
[20:57] <MarkDude> You THINK it would be cheaper
[21:20] <nhaines> bkerensa: thanks!  :)
[21:52] <MarkDude> http://www.ybca.org/how-money-corrupts
[21:52] <MarkDude> Larry Lessig next Tue in SF
[21:52]  * pleia2 haz tickets
[21:53] <MarkDude> Right on, looks like fun
[21:53] <pleia2> my boss is a member of long now so I just nudge him when I want to go :)
[21:53] <pleia2> this one was a big "yes yes yes"
[21:54] <MarkDude> Should be interesting
[21:55] <pleia2> I'm not actually all that sure about the topic :)
[21:55] <pleia2> but lessig is cool
[21:55] <jledbetter> Neat
[21:56] <MarkDude> Well he is visionary type
[21:56] <MarkDude> So not all his visions need be correct, he can ride Creative Commons for a while, imho
