An interesting item on the BBC today
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-27346567 about an operating system
and home folder on a usb stick intended for use on any old third world
computer, presumably with a usb port. The thing that struck me was that
the item says that the op system is based on Google Android. Why would
you want all that cruft for a computer with no touch screen and other
bells and whistles?
But on another web site it says that the op system is based on linux
with added apps. Is this a case of 'Mustn't use the word linux or we'll
frighten people off' syndrome? Or just ignorant reporting? I think we
should be told....
