 Cray, our favorite
Supercomputing Madmen, have decided to start reselling their infamous Moab
Clustering Suite. Cluster Resources,
Inc. are the guys to thank, and it looks like clustering might just be the
next big step.
There are efforts underway to cover
Open-Source OS/2. Good luck on getting IBM to release that source-code, they
will hold onto that with their cold dead fingers.
Microsoft is a huge bastion
of scary lawyers and programmers, they say, but Linus, our hero, has called the
software giant. He is laying down his cards, and all bets are off. He
thinks they are bluffing with their patent threats. This could get
interesting.
NVIDIA has released their
latest driver set for Linux: Phoronix
are the guys to ask about them. In addition, everyone has been saying NVIDIA
is purchasing Ageia.
Lastly, the newest version of
Gimp: 2.4.4 is released to the drooling masses.
These folks have always put out a quality, Open-Sourced product. Grab it, and
get back to GIMPing. Happy hacking.

 For those looking to watch tomorrow’s football game for one
reason only, there is a sneak peak available. Wi-Fi-TV has the commercials in tomorrow’s
Super Bowl XLII. The videos are lower quality, but they can be maximized through
the Windows Media web player. Just double click on the video and enjoy. We
always love trying to guess what the actual product is they are selling. In
addition, it looks like the famous GoDaddy girl commercials are back as well.

First, KDE is making a mess
of the competition by making waves in their KDE
for Windows project. Just think: your favorite
KDE apps are coming to live on Windows.
Second, Linux now has better
compatibility than Windows Vista does for its programs.
For those businesses out
there, Open Source is really changing things and shaking the market up. What
most people used to think was just a start-up company's bread-and-butter for
cutting costs, is now saving everyone
and their dog. Some
people are even willing to call it "mainstream."
Want another distribution to try? Take a gander at the latest masterpiece that lauds
exactly what every Linux start-up does: Easy for everyone to use. Let us hope
so, Ulteo.
Lastly, for those music fans that have a nice mp3 player that shows album
art, but just never got any: fret not. Open-Source has a cure, and it can be found here for
Linux and Windows. Yay
