This is another advert, posted by the same weenie as before.

This is three that I have caught, one I know was nuked by drummer-in-chief.

@azerthoth This is not an advertisement, well, kinda, but, isn't that just what all the stories up here really are? Think about it, link to someone's blog = advert, link to nVidia's new driver = advert, link to new WINE release = advert.

Though, I still defend my post, and it's not an advertisement, otherwise I would have put it in that category.

Might I add, how is it already "Today's Big Story" if people weren't interested? Unlike you, some people care about these little things. And, that's exactly why I posted this story.

Sorry man, its an outright advert. I remember the webpage looking different, thought it was an article about a company selling computers with gNewSense on them.

I am sorry man, I am going to have to remove it. Its an ad order page.

Yes that is an ad. It's not simply a blog or short article, about Ina doing this, which would be fine, it's actually the sales page from the we site.

It would be fine in the Linux vendors list.

Sorry, I can see that now, an article would be more interesting. I just posted it not thinking about it. I think it would be kinda cool to write an article about this, you know, because it's quite a big deal. There's only two companies selling computers with gNewSense, and inatux is one of them. Well, like I said, what you don't like delete, it's your guys' site. There is a way to write articles here isn't there? Or, can we just post links to others' articles?
