eeeLancelot: Just Gimme the Prize

The theme music in the background of this post (obviously, you don’t hear it, but let your imagination go wild) is from a rather dull movie, but with a more than awesome soundtrack:

“I have something to say, it’s better to burn out than to fade away… There can be only one!” ~ Kurgan

eeeLancelot

Well, I just wanted to show you the prize I won thanks to Qt Centre’s contest I mentioned sometime ago. Special kudos go to miss (or Mrs) Erica Brescia and Bitrock for providing me with this beauty!

And, I would like to take this chance to congratulate the other winers of the contest, and that I hope that they will enjoy their prizes as much as I do mine.

eeeLancelot

I’ve named my new pet eeeLancelot for obvious reasons. It currently runs with some strange looking KDE manufactured by Xandros. But not for long, I’ve begun the Debianization, so soon it will be a clean Debian GNU/Linux with KDE 4.2.

Cheerio!

  5. What a misleading title! I thought you were going to make a Lancelot version specially designed for netbooks!

    These small devices are wicked cool, I can’t wait to get my hands on one. Hope you have lots of fun with your eeeLancelot!

  6. @Hans: Sorry, it was intentional. Although I don’t study journalism, lately I like making sensational titles :)

    BTW, I never said that I’m not going to make Lancelot for small screens. Aaron had mentioned once that it would be cool to make Lancelot placeable as a whole on the desktop (when I mentioned that I’m making the Parts applet) … so ;)
