In reference to “Web 2.0 short sellers” post, I am very annoyed with Calacanis’ stand recently. His approach towards the remuneration of the top contributors is not the right way. He makes as if he’s stealing other people by giving them a reward and targetting them specifically (Digg). His arrogance is pissing off a lot of people.
I’m looking for a desktop computer that will run Linux at home. I need it to be silent so that I can leave open overnight. It must not sound like a hoover. No CPU fan at all would be great. I’m checking the Shuttle models and even the MacMini (!). I need something cheap and silent that let me work on my multiple shell sessions.
Since the release of Intel Macs, it is now possible to run Mac OS X on PC i386 hardware. It is pretty neat and recognizes all the hardware on a Dell Inspiron except for the wifi chipset. The final step would be Apple selling OS X for PCs officially.

Devdas was originally written by Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay in 1917 and has been adapted to the Indian cinema four times. The last one was in 2002 and it was officially selected for Cannes festival. It was the most expensive movie at that time (IN Rs 500 millions). Devdas reunites the old and new stars of Bollywood: Jackie Shroff and Madhuri Dixit as the veterans and Shahrukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai as the newcomers. Devdas is the unachieved love story of two childhood sweethearts and the downspiral of Devdas who finds refuge with another woman. The story is about missed opportunities and vanity.
