Congrats! This is one of the more interesting distro's and interfaces out there.
What our your thoughts on arm & mips that seem to be making headlines in the gnu/linux world ?
@tuxhelper: Thanks for your kind words. I don't think "Smartbook" will succeed if they looks like laptop. And non of them can actually compete with smartphone. ;-)
請教,對於firefox附加元件部份不知道您有沒有研究
