Did we ever get to a conclusion as to whether Cheeplinux are now in
"Marie Celeste Website" mode, or has simply changed their company name
or something?
Would be interested to know as I have recommended people go there in
the past, though not lately.

I'm not quite sure where this should be asked as it is a cross-platform
thing. I am fed up of listening to my (Windows XP) gaming computer through
headphones so I want to get it hooked to the stereo.
Rather than use a heck of a lot of wire, I can sit my Ubuntu 9.10 netbook on
top of the stereo and
no cd drive to load *nix

nb. there are also commands which don't require additional (non-repo)
packages to be installed. The command shread should allow you to
shread files.

If you're building a Boxee player, D-Link's Boxee Box is scheduled to be out

I would like something in the less than £100 area...but doubt it. Building
it myself is out of the question...nothing will be that cheap.
