There's been all this discussion of AIR. I am unfamiliar with AIR. My question : "Why would I (as an user) __need__ AIR ?"
I do not mind using a "browser", nor do I mind installing a special-purpose "plugin" into my browser in order to access particular material. But what does AIR provide that for instance the combination of "latest Firefox plus latest Adobe Flash plugin" would not provide ? Thanks, mikus p.s. People keep showing various Linux platforms (e.g., Ubuntu, Debian, etc) running on the XO. As far as I am concerned, if these people *want* to run Ubuntu, Debian, etc., then buying a modern netbook for that purpose will give them better performance than using the XO. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
