Re: [Trisquel-users] The future of Libre Computing: Crowd Funding Campaign Starts Now

yeahyeah it's a bit of a radical shift, we've been so innocuated to have  
powerful computers - i'm no exception, i'm typing this from a machine with a  
13.3in 2560x1600 LCD, 4 80x50 xterms crammed into the left 2/5ths of the  
screen and still have room for iceweasel @ 1250 x 1400 on the right - that a  
2.5 watt computer really is a bit of a kick to the head.

we'll get there... *in stages* - in manageable increments.  that's what this  
is about.  we've got something like... 12-15 years of trusting (and being  
betrayed by) the incumbent mass-volume manufacturers.  that's not gonna  
happen overnight - not on the budget of a single small-to-medium-sized  
business.
