I thought the battle of StudiVZ with Facebook over copying design was the last one I will see, but not anymore as German PC company is out with Apple clone. These clones have been manufactured by HyperMegaNet. These devices range from a mere $499 to $1499 and can run both Mac OS X and Windows Vista or XP. I am not sure where is this going to end up for the manufacturers, any ideas or predictions?
Please donate your old boxes to a church-group or some needy student in these hard times! To comply with the law, and with Microsoft’s leasing policy, you can now replace Microsoft OS with the free (download from the net) Ubuntu OS, which can be set to erase the hard drive of all traces of the “illegal to give away ” Microsoft system and your private information, before donation! Now, explain to your lucky recipient that all the manuals they will ever need are available for free on the internet! Just ask for them in Google! OpenOffice, which is installed already is plenty adequate for homework assignments and with a little exploring, everything else can work well too! Happy computing!
