Ha, that's brilliant. One of the reasons why i love linux (or in his case FreeBSD) is that is gives you the options of being creative. Who would have thought of doing that with windows?

Another cool one is linux on the iPOD http://www.ipodlinux.org

Can't wait till the mini is supported

People are always thinking of new ways, me too I just luv the versatility of unix/linux. If it was done with windoze, every 100 km you have to shut it down and reboot it. Well we all know bikes were made for unix/linux, ..........they don't come with windows.

Thanks for the link, another interesting developement to keep an eye on.

I ride a CBR900RR and I only do some of the trick riding, but my friends on the other hand are killer at this. Soon as I tell them that for a couple of buck we can video tape for hours. I might just have to build that amo can nix box to get this done.
