A dream come true, If only my boss would want to install one in the office... MooBella has put Linux to work making ice cream, in a vending machine that Wallace and Gromit would be proud of. The MooBella vending machine uses Linux 2.4 and a Red Hat filesystem to make 96 varieties of ice cream, on demand, in about 45 seconds per precisely-measured serving. Take also time to visit LinuxDevices.com to discover the number of devices the linux penguin TUX already control: Total domination :-)

 MadPenguin has put an online review of the Pepper Pad, a project similar to the Microsoft Origami solution.

Once again, Tux has beat the Borg to the punch with a new innovation. This time, it's the Pepper Pad  an ultra-mobile computer designed primarily for video playback and Internet access under circumstances where most notebook computers would be too heavy, and most PDAs would have too small a viewing screen. If you have seen the Origami media blitz (who hasn't!!) and you want a truly open ultra-mobile computer NOW and don't want to wait for Origami, you probably will like the Linux-powered Pepper Pad.
