Some people expressed interest in these new PC's. However I'm sure most will use a different version of Linux. Source Metasploit: The fine folks at RISE Security have purchased a Linux-based ASUS Eee PC and literally rooted it out of the box (using Metasploit, of course). Considering how much criticism other PC vendors have received for out-of-the-box security, its a wonder that a similar outcry has not been heard for Linux-based products. The last line of the RISE article really sums it up: "Easy to learn, Easy to work, Easy to root." http://www.risesecurity.org/blog/entry/6/ -------------------------------------------------- Brian Vagnoni PGP Digital Fingerprint F076 6EEE 06E5 BEEF EBBD BD36 F29E 850D FC32 3955 -------------------------------------------------- ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
