Linux keyboard on the way
p2pnet.net News:- Cherry Corp is introducing a keyboard aimed at Linux users – complete with a little Tux where the Microsoft logo might otherwise go.
Aimed at UK and German speaking users, the keyboard features 29 hot keys configured for Linux OS and desktop applications, says InfoWorld here.
“We are responding to numerous requests from Linux users to design a keyboard that gives them all the familiar features of a Windows-based keyboard, such as the ability to browse the Web, check e-mail or play a CD,” it quotes Cherry marketing director Günter Vogl as saying. “We have developed the necessary drivers to provide these features.”
At around $49.41, the keyboard comes with a special edition of SuSE Linux 9.1 from Novell, says the story.

Jass,
CHRIST has given us all a perfect example, of how to preceed in the direction of GOD. Vengence only belongs to GOD, as the same as judgement,.. Whenever we do so much as think of any retalliation we are not in position to go to the pallace,.. because we should learn while we are here how to conduct ourselves,.. and we will all receive more powers when we arive at the palace where we will need more power than what we presently have to live,.. as we live by the will of GOD alone with everybody,..
Golden
WE ALL LIVE BY THE WILL OF GOD AND WHEN WE LIFT ARE HANDS OR WHATEVER TO STRIKE ONE ANOTHER WE ARE PUTING CHRIST BACK ON THE CROSS AND BETRAYING HIM AGAIN EVERY TIME
