Today's News: " As announced at the LinuxWorld Conference & Expo 2002, the leading event focused exclusively on Linux and open source solutions, "Linux (for PlayStation 2)" will for the first time allow developers in North America complete access to the PlayStation 2 runtime environment and system manuals. The "Linux (for PlayStation 2)" Release 1.0 kit includes: -- Internal hard disk drive for PlayStation 2 (HDD) with 40 GB capacity -- Network Adaptor (Ethernet) (for PlayStation 2) with 100 Base T Ethernet interface -- Linux Kernel version 2.2.1 (with USB device support) -- "Linux (for PlayStation 2)" Version 1.0 software distribution on two DVDs -- gcc 2.95.2 and glibc 2.2.2 with VU assemblers -- XFree86 3.3.6 with PlayStation 2 GS support -- Computer monitor adaptor (for PlayStation 2) (with audio connectors) -- USB Keyboard and mouse (for PlayStation 2)"

I knew they were releasing Linux for the PS2, but I didn't know it was a "kit".  This could be really cool.

Finally, it's winter. The year's first real blast of winter hit Chicago, dumping more than 17 inches at O'Hare since Wednesday morning and closing scores of schools. Chicago Public Schools, however, remain open. [Chicago Sun-Times]
