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