“Hello, and welcome to the AllLinuxDevices weekly review.
This is your guide to the best of the past week on ALD, and a
look at what’s coming up.
Don’t forget that you can get an
early jump on the embedded Linux news that interests you the most
by signing up for an account. That, in turn, enables you to set
customized triggers and change the ALD frontpage to suit your
tastes.”

“If you came to Linux from the Windows world, or ever had to
install it on a computer that had been running Windows, you
probably remember a brief moment of satisfaction when the
installation was done and there was nothing left to do but enjoy a
machine that seemed a little more new. As handhelds proliferate,
bringing the benefits of portable computing, a lot of us in the
Linux community have found ourselves wondering if there’s any way
to reclaim our palmtops from WinCE.”

“If you aren’t the sort to normally read the reader responses to
items, I’d encourage you to take a look at them on this particular
story: Jason Chagas, Fred Finster, and Hiroshi Kawashima all
contributed links to additional information that will be of real
use to anybody out to covert their WinCE machine to Linux.”
