freeform goodness

New for me, out-of-date for you…

• Dell’s FugliPod (a/k/a :the Digital Jukebox) via 2lmc, Sven, and Erik Barzeski. Still wondering how a computer company can take in billions of dollars in annual revenue and only divert about 50 cents worth of it into industrial design. Savages.
• This goes back a while, but Matt Dillon did a short evaluation of the small form-factor VIA-chipset motherboards and cases for use as small, lightweight, quiet, low-power home servers. I’m likely to go in that direction myself (using FreeBSD.) Putting this note here so the link will get indexed…
• A CCIA study takes on the (lack of) wisdom of trusting information infrastructure to a software monoculture (something I’ve been known to drone on about at length.) Saying what you really think can get you stomped, though.
