Steam is comming to Linux, now for real!
Yay, seems like the Steam Client, the Steam Engine and the Steam Games are comming to Linux, now for real.
There is no official announcement by Valve, yet.
But there are Linux binaries and a Linux launcher script on the valve servers publically available.
The Mac version, which is related to the Linux version (with regard to porting it to OpenGL, Webkit, etc…) and officially announced, is in a closed Beta at the moment.
So we may see the Linux version after the Mac version is in it’s final state.
Phoronix suspects a Linux version release in June.

1000x 本 NanoNote
Yesterday (24.02.2010) Qi-Hardware1 proudly announced their first product of copylefted hardware – Ben NanoNote – which is now released to the public. The first batch of 1000 NanoNotes is produced. They are shipping and in stock in Hong Kong, Europe and India!2
Now, Qi-Hardware’s masterplan is to sell their 1000 units. Actually they have to sell them, because they spend $180.000 until now, without earning any money (as stated in chapter two of the “[Company] Weekly Update 6/2010”3)
So, if you are an opensource enthusiast, interested in a miniPC/PDA like gadget with 100% opensource hardware (a.k.a. copyleft hardware), running 100% opensource software, which offers a lot of opportunities to run all sort of software on it, go for it!
Get a Ben NanoNote and help Qi-Hardware to finance their current and future efforts in the opensource hardware business:
