The little tour of Lycoris intrigues me with what they've been doing.

Not that I'm interested in buying it or anything, but have any of you used Lycoris Linux?

Wal-Mart sells cheap PCs with Lycoris pre-installed on them.  I'm tempted to pick one up just to see what they can do.  Worst case scenario has me throwing Slackware on the cheap POS and using it as a file server, I figure.

Judge, that might sound like an attractive proposition on the surface, but if you think about it, the intraharem squabbles would drive you nuts.

Demosthenes, what is WallMart's price for one of them suckers?

I can't find the Lycoris ones on their site at the moment.  The only ones I can find are the Linspire (Lindows) ones, here.

D'oh.  Biz beat me to it.
