Canonical Announcing Ubuntu Tablet Tomorrow? 121
hypnosec writes "Canonical has a countdown on its site that indicates a possible tablet announcement tomorrow. With the Ubuntu Touch developer preview launching this week, the announcement about a tablet or at least an operating system for a tablet from Canonical has, it seems, taken a backseat. From the countdown that reads "Tick, tock, tablet time!" it is evident that Canonical is going to make some announcement about tablets tomorrow."

If it runs Unity then run for the hills. Seriously, how many users did they lose with that ugliness?
Not me. It's still Linux and I can still install window managers on top of Unity.

In fact, contrary to your claim many people care. This is why Ghostery/NoScript/etc exist. Nice deflection though, shill.

Even better: based on Slackware, but with a well flushed out package base. The Slackware system is very nicely designed for noob or expert alike -- however, the lack of packages beyond a few hundred (perhaps thousands if you count slackbuilds.org) leaves plenty of people still scared off from Slackware. It's a shame; few systems leave things standard enough to not have to worry about nightmare tarball compilations for those packages you may still have left to compile by hand.
