Thanksgiving, as an American, means
- Being Thankful for what you have.
- Eating way too much food with family.
- Planning what you are going to buy on Black Friday where all of the retailers sell loss-leader electronics in the hopes of you buying other stuff in their stores.
The truth of the matter folks, I have been gluttonous too much electronic. There is a backlog of unused the hardware I have in my basement. When everyone runs out to the stores tomorrow, I am going to hold my own Linux installfest at home. Here I will make functional systems that could not run Vista or Windows 7. If you live around Western PA and you would like to help deploy these systems, please express interest in the comments. Also, if anyone has any creative ideas for using recycling a series 2 Tivo, I would be very thankful since I have one of those in my basement too.
Whatever you do tomorrow, please read Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols’ advice regarding Black Friday deals before hitting the stores. Better yet, stay at home and shop the Linux Journal store.
Recycling is one way that Microsoft will lose majority market share by June 30, 2011.
