Not content with changing the Linux landscape, now Canonical wants to get
into the PVR / Digital Set top box market with Ubuntu TV
http://ubuntu.com/tv

It looks really good, but is still a proof of concept at this time.
Can't help but think "Mythbuntu" though ;)

In other news, looks like the US Military has realised the true power of
Linux (Thanks for the link Heeed)

Now imagine the LUG's Special Project Group badge on one of those ;)
