  PUSH - Alternative Computer Event
posted by ironfist on 23rd June 2007


Last weekend, June 15-17th, me and my friends behind Pegasos.org arranged a computer party for everyone using other operating systems than Windows. It was a successful meeting with people from not only Sweden, but also Norway and Denmark.

We had a great time. Genesi was kind enough to send us an Open Client Plus to show off. People were impressed with GNU/Linux on XFCE4.

MorphOS developers Bigfoot and CISC were both there with their EFIKAs. They showed us MorphOS 2.0 running smoothly on these tiny platforms. There was a big difference in speed between MorphOS and GNU/Linux+XFCE4. The GNU/Linux machine had big troubles with playing movies, but the MorphOS machines played them alot smoother.
