EMTEC has announced the release of the
Gdium netbook computer
along with the OLPH
(One Laptop Per Hacker) program.
"The software application included with Gdium is based entirely on Open
Source Software and includes an impressive variety of programs: FireFox,
Thunderbird e-mail client, Instant Messaging, VoIP, Blog editor,
audio/video players, and security utilities, as well as a complete Open
Office suite of application for word processing, spreadsheets, and
presentations.
What makes Gdium unique is the G-Key, a bootable USB key on which the Linux
operating system, applications, and personal data are stored. The G-Key
allows each user to store their personal info and preference securely,
without leaving a trace on the computer.
