I'm always excited to see new Linux hardware on the market. California-based Zultys Technologies has come up with a new family of phones running Linux. Among the impressive features of these phones are support for PoE (Power over Ethernet), line-rate Ethernet switching, and a couple of ethernet ports for 2 simultaneous incoming or outgoing calls. Best of all, the phones seem reasonably priced.
Also newsworthy is a recent article in Network World in which they stated Apple seems to be making a comeback on the desktop. It's a good probability that these new customers are former Microsoft customers tired of licensing issues, being treated like criminals, but no mention was made of where the share is coming from. It's worth noting that these numbers didn't include Apple's new Mac mini, which is sure to shake a few boots in Redmond.
Surprisingly these numbers did indicate a decline in the sales of Mac portables. This is news to me since just the other day I sat the lone PC notebook user behind a string of 3 Apple PowerBook owners .
