So how many of you have taken a look?
Just for the record, in the post you're answering there, I didn't mean to say that Moblin itself was something bad or good. Just that I had never seen it natively shipped on brand-name, globally available hardware like Maemo has been since 2005. This was just for the sake of disputing Kathy's "functioning perfectly well without a forum" jibe about the Moblin "community".

And yes, I've tried it on my netbook too, but had hardware support problems, and didn't like the UI, so I finally went with Mint. But maybe we just share that thing about "bubbly" :-)
