&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I know this post is more and more buzz in Apple's favour but I should say that according those bloggers the reason why they choose Valencia is quite satisfactory, is because the target; touristic city, &lt;a href="http://gumvalencia.com/"&gt;Mac community in Valencia&lt;/a&gt;, and so on.

&lt;ol&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Viola los derechos constitucionales en los que se ha de basar un estado democrático en especial la presunción de inocencia, libertad de expresión, privacidad, inviolabilidad domiciliaria, tutela judicial efectiva, libertad de mercado, protección de consumidoras y consumidores, entre otros.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Genera para la Internet un estado de excepción en el cual la ciudadanía será tratada mediante procedimientos administrativos sumarísimos reservados por la Audiencia Nacional a narcotraficantes y terroristas.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Establece un procedimiento punitivo «a la carta» para casos en los que los tribunales ya han manifestado que no constituían delito, implicando incluso la necesidad de modificar al menos 4 leyes, una de ellas orgánica. Esto conlleva un cambio radical en el sistema jurídico y una fuente de inseguridad para el sector de las TIC (Tecnología de la Información y la Comunicación). Recordamos, en este sentido, que el intercambio de conocimiento y cultura en la red es un &lt;a href="http://noticias.lainformacion.com/economia-negocios-y-finanzas/redes/los-usuarios-que-descargan-archivos-p2p-gastan-mas-dinero_Fo58z3eGxWsRG0NKpjhCE7/"&gt; motor económico&lt;/a&gt; importante para &lt;a href="http://noticias.lainformacion.com/arte-cultura-y-espectaculos/cine/el-cine-espanol-cerrara-con-cifras-record-a-pesar-de-internet_uVFrhCBCXhYPTF51YCG3a7/"&gt;salir de la crisis&lt;/a&gt; como se ha &lt;a href="http://www.theinquirer.es/2009/11/17/lo-que-las-discograficas-ocultan.html"&gt;demostrado&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2009/11/20/cultura/1258739927.html"&gt;ampliamente.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Los mecanismos preventivos urgentes de los que dispone la ley y la judicatura son para proteger a  toda ciudadanía frente a riesgos tan graves como los que afectan a  la salud pública. El gobierno pretende utilizar estos mismos mecanismos de protección global para beneficiar intereses particulares frente a la ciudadanía. Además la normativa introducirá el concepto de «lucro indirecto», es decir: a mí me pueden cerrar el blog porque «promocionó» a uno que «promociona» a otro que vincula a un tercero que hace negocios presuntamente ilícitos.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Recordamos que la propiedad intelectual &lt;a href="http://derechoynormas.blogspot.com/2010/01/la-ley-de-ejecucion-por-la-sospecha.html"&gt;no es un derecho fundamental&lt;/a&gt; contrariamente a las declaraciones del Ministro de Justicia, Francisco Caamaño. Lo que es un derecho fundamental es el derecho a la producción literaria y artística.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;De acuerdo con las declaraciones de la Ministra de Cultura, esta disposición se utilizará exclusivamente para cerrar 200 webs que presuntamente están atentando contra los derechos de autor. Entendemos que si éste es el objetivo de la disposición, no es necesaria, ya que con la legislación actual existen procedimientos que permiten actuar contra webs, incluso con medidas cautelares, cuando presuntamente se esté incumpliendo la legalidad. Por lo que no queda sino recelar de las verdaderas intenciones que la motivan ya que lo único que añade a la legislación actual es el hecho de dejar la ciudadanía en una situación de grave indefensión jurídica en el entorno digital.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Finalmente consideramos que la propuesta del gobierno no sólo es un despilfarro de recursos sino que será absolutamente ineficaz en sus presuntos propósitos y deja patente la absoluta incapacidad por parte del ejecutivo de entender los tiempos y motores de la Era Digital.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;La disposición es una concesión más a la vieja industria del entretenimiento en detrimento de los derechos fundamentales de la ciudadanía en la era digital.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;La ciudadanía no puede permitir de ninguna manera que sigan los intentos de vulnerar derechos fundamentales de las personas, sin la debida tutela judicial efectiva, para proteger derechos de menor rango como la propiedad intelectual. Dicha circunstancia ya fue aclarada con el dictado de inconstitucionalidad de la ley Corcuera (o «ley de la patada en la puerta»). El &lt;a href="http://wiki.manifiestointernet.org/"&gt;Manifiesto en defensa de los derechos fundamentales en Internet&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a title="Grupo de apoyo al Manifiesto en Facebook" href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=186879394498"&gt;respaldado por más de 200.000 personas&lt;/a&gt;, ya avanzó la reacción y demandas de la ciudadanía antes la perspectiva inaceptable del gobierno.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Para impulsar un definitivo cambio de rumbo y coordinar una respuesta conjunta, el 9 de enero se ha constituido la &lt;a href="http://red-sostenible.net/"&gt;Red SOStenible&lt;/a&gt;, una plataforma representativa de todos los sectores sociedad civil afectados. El objetivo es iniciar una ofensiva para garantizar una regulación del entorno digital que permita expresar todo el potencial de la Red y de la creación cultural respetando las libertades fundamentales.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;En este sentido, reconocemos como referencia para el desarrollo de la era digital, la &lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/"&gt;Carta para la innovación, la creatividad y el acceso al conocimiento&lt;/a&gt;, un documento de síntesis elaborado por más de &lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended#signatories"&gt;cien expertos de 20 países&lt;/a&gt; que recoge los principios legales fundamentales que deben inspirar este nuevo horizonte.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;En particular, consideramos que en estos momentos es especialmente urgentes la implementación por parte de gobiernos e instituciones competentes, de los siguientes aspectos recogidos en la Carta:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Los artistas como todos los trabajadores tienen que poder vivir de su trabajo (referencia punto 2 «&lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended#legal"&gt;Demandas legales&lt;/a&gt;», párrafo B. «Estímulo de la creatividad y la innovación», de la &lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended"&gt;Carta&lt;/a&gt;);&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;La sociedad necesita para su desarrollo de una red abierta y libre (referencia punto 2 «&lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended#legal"&gt;Demandas legales&lt;/a&gt;», párrafo D, «Acceso a las infraestructuras tecnológicas», de la &lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended"&gt;Carta&lt;/a&gt;);&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;El derecho a cita y el derecho a compartir tienen que ser potenciado y no limitado como fundamento de toda posibilidad de información y constitutivo de todo conocimiento (referencia punto 2 «&lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended#legal"&gt;Demandas legales&lt;/a&gt;», párrafo A, «Derechos en un contexto digital», de la &lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended"&gt;Carta&lt;/a&gt;);&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;La ciudadanía debe poder disfrutar libremente de los derechos exclusivos de los bienes públicos que se pagan con su dinero, con el dinero publico (referencia punto 2 «&lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended#legal"&gt;Demandas legales&lt;/a&gt;», párrafo C, «Conocimiento común y dominio público», de la &lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended"&gt;Carta&lt;/a&gt;);&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Consideramos necesaria una reforma en profundidad del sistema de las entidades de gestión y la abolición del canon digital (referencia punto 2 «&lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended#legal"&gt;Demandas legales&lt;/a&gt;«, párrafo B, «Estímulo de la creatividad y la innovación», de la &lt;a href="http://fcforum.net/es/charter_extended"&gt;Carta&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Por todo ello hoy se inicia la campaña &lt;a title="Internet no será otra tele" href="http://internetnoseraotratv.net"&gt;Internet no será otra tele&lt;/a&gt; y se llevarán a cabo diversas acciones ciudadanas durante todo el periodo de la presidencia española de la UE.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Consideramos particularmente importantes en el calendario de la presidencia de turno española el II Congreso de Economía de la Cultura (29 y 30 de marzo en Barcelona),  Reunión Informal de ministros de Cultura (30 y 31 de marzo en Barcelona) y la reunión de ministros de Telecomunicaciones (18 a 20 de abril en Granada).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;La Red tiene previsto reunirse con representantes nacionales e internacionales de partidos políticos, representantes de la cultura y delegaciones diplomáticas.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
El subt&amp;iacute;tulo de su página web es &lt;a href="http://onshakyground.com.au/"&gt;"Un episodio de MS en la Antartida"&lt;/a&gt; y pienso qu&amp;eacute; cojones es MS? Microsoft? pues no; Esclerosis Múltiple en inglés.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
Lo que se recaude durante la duraci&amp;oacute;n del projecto de su p&amp;aacute;gina web ir&amp;aacute; donado a asuntos de Esclerosis m&amp;uacute;ltiple. Fiona, la fotografa sufre esclerosis multiple y ha viajado once veces a la Antartida.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Fiona dice:
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;cite&gt;"Asumir la conciencia de las dificultades de vivir el d&amp;iacute;a a d&amp;iacute;a con esclerosis multiple y explorar la idea de la discapacidad y el viaje de aventura no son excluyentes mutuamente, estoy emprendiendo el viaje a la Antartida seguido de una extenso viaje por Chile. Planeo recaudar fondos para la investigaci&amp;oacute;n en esclerosis multiple y proyectos de rehabilitaci&amp;oacute;n a través de la venta de articulos, imagenes y charlas a la comunidad y grupos interesados."&lt;/cite&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Dice también que tenía planeado un libro que mostrar&amp;iacute;a el lado humor&amp;iacute;stico incluso profundo de algui&amp;eacute;n que sufre esclerosis m&amp;uacute;ltiple, no s&amp;eacute; si lo public&amp;oacute;.

de modificaciones legislativas que afectan al libre ejercicio de las
libertades de expresión, información y el derecho de acceso a la
cultura a través de Internet, los periodistas, bloggers, usuarios,
profesionales y creadores de internet manifestamos nuestra firme
oposición al proyecto, y declaramos que?&lt;br /&gt;

1.- &lt;strong&gt;Los derechos de autor no pueden situarse por encima de los derechos fundamentales de los ciudadanos&lt;/strong&gt;,
como el derecho a la privacidad, a la seguridad, a la presunción de
inocencia, a la tutela judicial efectiva y a la libertad de expresión.&lt;br /&gt;

2.- &lt;strong&gt;La suspensión de derechos fundamentales es y debe seguir siendo competencia exclusiva del poder judicial&lt;/strong&gt;.
Ni un cierre sin sentencia. Este anteproyecto, en contra de lo
establecido en el artículo 20.5 de la Constitución, pone en manos de un
órgano no judicial -un organismo dependiente del ministerio de
Cultura-, la potestad de impedir a los ciudadanos españoles el acceso a
cualquier página web.&lt;br /&gt;

3.- &lt;strong&gt;La nueva legislación creará inseguridad jurídica en todo el sector tecnológico español&lt;/strong&gt;,
perjudicando uno de los pocos campos de desarrollo y futuro de nuestra
economía, entorpeciendo la creación de empresas, introduciendo trabas a
la libre competencia y ralentizando su proyección internacional.&lt;br /&gt;

4.- &lt;strong&gt;La nueva legislación propuesta amenaza a los nuevos creadores y entorpece la creación cultural&lt;/strong&gt;.
Con Internet y los sucesivos avances tecnológicos se ha democratizado
extraordinariamente la creación y emisión de contenidos de todo tipo,
que ya no provienen prevalentemente de las industrias culturales
tradicionales, sino de multitud de fuentes diferentes.&lt;br /&gt;

5.- &lt;strong&gt;Los autores&lt;/strong&gt;, como todos los trabajadores, &lt;strong&gt;tienen derecho a vivir de su trabajo con nuevas ideas creativas, modelos de negocio y actividades asociadas a sus creaciones&lt;/strong&gt;.
Intentar sostener con cambios legislativos a una industria obsoleta que
no sabe adaptarse a este nuevo entorno no es ni justo ni realista. Si
su modelo de negocio se basaba en el control de las copias de las obras
y en Internet no es posible sin vulnerar derechos fundamentales,
deberían buscar otro modelo.&lt;br /&gt;

6.- Consideramos que &lt;strong&gt;las industrias culturales necesitan
para sobrevivir alternativas modernas, eficaces, creíbles y asequibles
y que se adecuen a los nuevos usos sociales&lt;/strong&gt;, en lugar de limitaciones tan desproporcionadas como ineficaces para el fin que dicen perseguir.&lt;br /&gt;

7.- &lt;strong&gt;Internet debe funcionar de forma libre y sin interferencias políticas&lt;/strong&gt;
auspiciadas por sectores que pretenden perpetuar obsoletos modelos de
negocio e imposibilitar que el saber humano siga siendo libre.&lt;br /&gt;

8.- &lt;strong&gt;Exigimos que el Gobierno garantice por ley la neutralidad de la Red en España&lt;/strong&gt;,
ante cualquier presión que pueda producirse, como marco para el
desarrollo de una economía sostenible y realista de cara al futuro.&lt;br /&gt;

9.- &lt;strong&gt;Proponemos una verdadera reforma del derecho de propiedad intelectual&lt;/strong&gt;
orientada a su fin: devolver a la sociedad el conocimiento, promover el
dominio público y limitar los abusos de las entidades gestoras.&lt;br /&gt;

10.- &lt;strong&gt;En democracia las leyes y sus modificaciones deben aprobarse tras el oportuno debate público&lt;/strong&gt;
y habiendo consultado previamente a todas las partes implicadas. No es
de recibo que se realicen cambios legislativos que afectan a derechos
fundamentales en una ley no orgánica y que versa sobre otra materia&lt;br /&gt;

Thanks to Pedro I've been noticed about &lt;a href="http://directory.apache.org/studio/"&gt;Apache Directory Studio&lt;/a&gt;, which is a subset of a most important project: the &lt;a href="http://directory.apache.org/"&gt;Apache Directory&lt;/a&gt; and LDAP under the Apache Project.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks to Angel also, I've been having a look on that tool. If you want to search, edit and see an LDAP without learn a line about command line, or using ldapmodify plus ldiff files to create or modify entries you should use this tool. Dammed easy.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And you're in IT probably you have use Eclipse at least once so it would be easy for you since its LDAP editor is a plugin under your Eclipse. You just need to &lt;a href="http://directory.apache.org/studio/installation-in-eclipse.html"&gt;follow this instruccions to get in use as a Eclipse plugin&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks to Pedro &amp; Angel and ... great soft again from Apache.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5820435-2328308523701073724?l=www.benavent.org%2Fdiario' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5820435/posts/default/2328308523701073724'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5820435/posts/default/2328308523701073724'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.benavent.org/diario/2009/10/apache-directory-studio.html' title='Apache Directory Studio'/><author><name>pbenavent</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11944775189899030949</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='12323016509603460137'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5820435.post-8555034299108772165</id><published>2009-10-05T08:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-05T08:39:59.287-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='linux'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='programming'/><title type='text'>How to know my own PID in a bash shellscript</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;I was sure there's a way to know easily what is the PID in a bash shellscript, without doing anything complicated -such a &lt;tt&gt;ps wwaux | grep something&lt;/tt&gt;- and then I've found this quick ref. about &lt;a href="http://steve-parker.org/sh/quickref.shtml"&gt;less easily guessed commands and codes in Unix shell&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By the way, inside a shellscript, the PID of that shellscript is stored in the &lt;tt&gt;$$&lt;/tt&gt; environment variable, for instance, you may type this on your terminal:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;code&gt;echo "My pid is $$"&lt;/code&gt;&lt;br&gt;
and you'll get something like:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;code&gt;My pid is 14467&lt;/code&gt;

Now let me copy here how to erase or delete a line using sed if that line has a pattern.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you want to erase, for instance a line that starts with &lt;b&gt;&lt;tt&gt;#&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/b&gt; character, you should use something like:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;tt&gt;sed -e '/^#/d'&lt;/tt&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If your text comes from a command you may use a pipe by doing something like:
&lt;br&gt;&lt;tt&gt;cat /etc/services | sed -e '/^#/d'&lt;/tt&gt;
&lt;br&gt;or if you want to use on a certain file:
&lt;br&gt;&lt;tt&gt;sed -e '/^#/d' fileName.ext&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Hope it helps someone...

you: telnet imap.domain.com 143&lt;br&gt;

you: ? OK LOGIN completed.? LIST "" "*"&lt;br&gt;

I've benn using it and altough time has passed and new hardware has appeared (smartphones, phonepda's and so on) that Palm keep on running doing what it was expected quite well.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But the thing is that I was thinking on a change and I face up again with the same problem. Palm desktop software export all the stuff in a binary proprietary format.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So I look for a new &lt;a href="http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/33529_en.html"&gt;Palm desktop version&lt;/a&gt;. Outdated versions, users and products lost at their own way... It's annoying how Palm has lost their market, they've got an excelent product, in hardware and software terms. Now, it's quite clear that my next hand gadget would be from a different vendor.

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nop says that he receives a lot of Facebook requests for getting in touch with people who is friend of somebody else and not known by himself. (Do I wrotte properly this sentence? ... never know...) He also says that this social-networks are not social but &lt;em&gt;unsocial&lt;/em&gt;... and I agree... as long as you use those networks you don't get in touch in real world, what is more &lt;em&gt;social&lt;/em&gt; than the real world relationship?
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I've been in Facebook but I'm no longer, it is very &lt;em&gt;time consuming&lt;/em&gt; and very often it tries to access to personal data or such things. I'm even considering how useful is LinkedIn or Xing.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In my humble opinion it is true that network is changing a lot how our world is, but sometimes, we believe that everything comming from the Internet has a positive touch: we shouldn't loose our critical point of view... neve.

It was announced as usual, &lt;a href="http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2006/060712xa.html"&gt;hardware company announced it&lt;/a&gt;, and for sure &lt;a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver/compare/casestudydetails.mspx?recid=37"&gt;MS takes it as a case of study&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What nobody likes to asume is a bad decision. On IT environments a bad decision may had a deep impact on business processes. You have a look by &lt;a href="http://www.google.es/search?q=london+stock+microsoft"&gt;googling what has happened with London Stock Exchange&lt;/a&gt; or you may go straight to the point by reading &lt;a href="http://blogs.computerworld.com/london_stock_exchange_to_abandon_failed_windows_platform"&gt;why London Stock Exchange abandon Microsoft and switch to Linux&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One of my mottos is: &lt;cite&gt;we're not the first ones in having such a problem, sure we aren't&lt;/cite&gt; and then I encourage my colleagues to see what somebody has done before to solve a similar problem. By the way if everybody jumps from the window it doesn't mean we've to do it.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you're interested about &lt;a href="http://customers.redhat.com/2008/05/12/nyse/"&gt;how New York Stock Exchange deals with IT to keep their systems running you gonna know they uses Linux&lt;/a&gt;...
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So... what else could I say... Up to you.

But let's go to the point.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It seems that car companies are one of most important keys to get out of the crisis, honestly, I don't understand how a single product could be such an important one. Sure I don't understand the depthness of the question... Now, there're a lot of credit facilities if you you want to buy a brand new car.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I feel quite concerned about ecological issues, so it's time to remind to all us this:
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;How this has happened, there were this steps:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;IBM offers an insuficient amount of money uppon Sun&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sun looks for some other candidate&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;IBM brokes negotiation when they know Sun is looking for someone else&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;...tic tac... a couple of days/weeks without news&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Oracle take the chance and buy Sun&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So IBM has losse a great chance to keep control over java and now Oracle has to merge new bussines -such a hardware or OS- &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There're more questions, what is going to happen with MySQL, with OID versus Directory Server from Sun? How hardware is going to be managed from Oracle? ... and you may keep on with all those questions, but comming back to my main thought:&lt;br&gt;
Oracle: 1 | IBM: 0&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The golden egg is &lt;a href="http://www.java.com"&gt;Java&lt;/a&gt;. I have no idea about how many chances offers to IBM to get Java under its umbrella, you simply consider that one of the main IBM products is its WebSphere. You may also think about how competitors will stay by a Java under IBM controls while they also has its owns Java servers.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Minors things to consider:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eclipse&lt;/b&gt;, now with IBM and no code suite in Sun to compete with, &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;MySql&lt;/b&gt;, bought by Sun, how MySql stays under this new map?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Solaris&lt;/b&gt;, with an OpenSolaris and a commercial Solaris, how it remains in IBM's portfolio, side by side with Aix, AS ...&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Oracle data base&lt;/b&gt;, and others software products runs over Solaris, how does it end with Solaris under IBM control?&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There's something very good in the idea; most of people doesn't need an expensive pc to get connected, browse the Internet and use the minimal amount of applications we all really need (browser, mail, chat). A minimal unexpensive and portable laptop may cover all that needs. I agree with the idea.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Differents hardware vendors offers their solutions, but in the beginning they all come with Windoes XP. It really was a breathe for Windows XP and a damnation for Vista. There were a player yet to come; Linux.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fedora has done some stuff for this, but it surprises me that a little work from Argentina has achieve a success: &lt;a href="http://www.educalibre.cl/blog/viewpost/1203.html"&gt;Tuquito in Chile&lt;/a&gt; (stand for Tucuman, their original city). This school has forget what virus and lack of memory means.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It's easy to find detailed benchmarks about how a distro runs on that hardware, I've already found pages about how others distros runs in that ultra notebooks, but what I've found for the very first time is a normal story about non technical users using it, in a real situation, and look: their are kids in a school. It sounds great.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5820435-9135871296782246737?l=www.benavent.org%2Fdiario' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5820435/posts/default/9135871296782246737'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5820435/posts/default/9135871296782246737'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.benavent.org/diario/2009/03/ultra-notebook-with-linux.html' title='Ultra notebook with Linux'/><author><name>pbenavent</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11944775189899030949</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='12323016509603460137'/></author></entry></feed>
