THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE!
My reading lists,
after I began to recognize the difference
between various personality disorders populating my social life,
has devolved to things like lists of old friends,
forgotten (Horrible) Bosses, and coyote morning escape therapy.
(Yes, I avoid rooms populated with mirrors.)

Anyways, keep going - we are still some distance from the Godwin Event Horizon.

As for Microsoft,
the day approaches when we will hear about a data breach
exposing squillions of user passwords,
all because the Win10 phone-the-mothership plan will get hacked.
After that their marketshare may no longer be dominant.

Now - back on topic:

The advertised release date for the GPD is October/November?
such a huge distance it is hard to justify getting too excited about.
In any case, that becomes
What's the best Handheld gnu/linux machine for 2017?

Our only real hope is that something in a pipeline pops up
like http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...ghlight=ubuntu

leaves both vi and emacs eating dust.
