| FunnyLookinHat | joey, if I didn't know better, I'd say you were turning into an Apple Fanboy. | 18:44 |
|---|---|---|
| joey | who me? | 18:44 |
| joey | and it would be "returning fanboy" | 18:44 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Yeah you | 18:44 |
| FunnyLookinHat | hah | 18:44 |
| joey | I left mac to come to ubuntu in 2005 | 18:44 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Stop selling people on the devil! | 18:44 |
| joey | I might be a bit short sided but I only think ubuntu and apple products are worthwhile | 18:45 |
| joey | they are both built on unix, have open source in them, etc | 18:45 |
| FunnyLookinHat | There certainly seems to be a "linux-powered ultrabook" hole that needs to be filled in the market. | 18:46 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Linux powered - as in - shipped w/ full Linux support and actually good battery life. | 18:46 |
| joey | yeah | 18:46 |
| joey | What I see at conferences certainly has changed | 18:46 |
| FunnyLookinHat | I'm excited to see what people bring to this next UDS | 18:47 |
| FunnyLookinHat | that's for sure. | 18:47 |
| FunnyLookinHat | yeah | 18:47 |
| joey | in 2005 it was 50% some linux (usually slackware), 49% windows, and 1% mac | 18:47 |
| joey | today it's 60% mac, 40% ubuntu, and 1% windows | 18:48 |
| joey | somewhere in the middle it was 50% ubuntu, 10% some other linux variant, 20% mac, 20% win | 18:48 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Talking about you - or what people bring to UDS? | 18:51 |
| joey | what I see at UDS, Linaro Connect, and other confs I go to | 18:57 |
| joey | even defcon although I'm a bit out of touch with that scene | 18:57 |
| joey | The other advantage which I forgot to put in my email to telecon was ... with an Air and I go to any of the nearby apple stores and get it replaced | 18:58 |
| joey | whereas with the Asus, well, good luck with that | 18:58 |
| joey | you have to call an 800 number and then ship it off and if you're lucky you'll get it back in a month | 18:59 |
| FunnyLookinHat | ah | 19:05 |
| FunnyLookinHat | I've never had much luck running Ubuntu on mac hardware | 19:06 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Always frustrated me. | 19:06 |
