Linux on the Mac Mini
Apple's Mac Mini is something which a lot of Linux users have been waiting for: An inexpensive, readily available PowerPC system in a small, quiet and attractive chassis.
Debian is very popular on Intel i386 compatible systems. Due to the open source nature of the Linux kernel and the Debian operating system, it is possible to build the same software to run on the PowerPC processor found inside the Mac Mini. It's simple to swap your big, noisy old PC for the slim, svelte Mac Mini, and this page aims to show you how to do just this.

Nintendo reveals Revolution strategy
-In a recent interview with ITmedia, Ken Toyota, Nintendo chief of public relations, shared insights about sales of the DS, the popularity of the company's Famicom Mini series for the Game Boy Advance, and PR tactics for discussing its next-gen console, the Revolution, at this year's E3.
When the subject of the Revolution arose, Toyota said, "E3 will be the starting point for the Revolution. [We haven't decided] whether we will show the real machine, videos, or unveil the concept. ... We want to receive some level of evaluation, but releasing too much information is also another issue. We don't have the slightest intention of making a machine that follows the same path as conventional game hardware. Right now, we are thinking of how we can accurately convey to people at E3 the different path that the Revolution will take and how it will change the way that games will be enjoyed."

Tiny computers
gumstix cluster - a pack of very small linux machines
One of the most intriguing uses to me seemed to be the clustering of these, and we have started to work on that in-house; hence, the picture you see here.
This is 4 waysmalls using an Ether Gadget with RNDIS plugged into a Windows XP machine, being bridged to a central DHCP server. Our hope is to make a cluster of at least a dozen gumstix available over the web for remote login. We plan to get distcc running on it and open it up to the community as a development cluster.
