Comment Other countries (Score 1) 395

I am an American living in Tanzania and although 3G is here (in certain major towns) buying any tablet with 3G from the US forces me to pick a telephone company so having a tablet with wifi + tethering my phone is a must. I'd be surprised if others wouldn't rather have an unlocked 3G option for international use.

Comment HP 2133 (Score 1) 466

I have two HP 2133 netbooks (120 gb HD version) and have Fedora 10 on one; Ubuntu 8.10 the other. Other than the VIA graphics (Chrome 9) not working out of the box, I've found Ubuntu to be the better of the two for installation and wifi support.

back before I sold crackberry.com i had similiar issues. I had RIM proxys trying to get me to turn it over to RIM, I guess so they could control the new slang term that had arisen. I said fock off. I think Chicago2016 is a similiar slang or street term for the 2016 Chicago Olympics (if they happen). If they take this from the guy then ICANN is officially the Internet's Communist And Nationalist Nazis.

Comment Donate to a lab in Africa? (Score 1) 620


I am living in Tanzania East Africa and try as I might, getting computers free isn't such an easy task as it is in the US. I am trying to build a computer lab to teach classes in Linux, sys-admin, and basic programming freely for the community, but all I have so far is an empty building.
