The minimum spec thread is on here somewhere Texrat and apart from the ram and cpu speed it also goes on about the graphics driver etc etc.

I wish the N900 could match those specs.
I wasn't talking about power/speed, just functionality.

There have been many calling MeeGo "vaporware" the whole time I've been using it...

Well it is vaporware untill now, it was an imaginary os that came to the forefront for further development.

Utterly incorrect.

Not sure why you say it is "vaporware" when now there has been three releases of the OS. Granted, it might not be ready for primetime for most users, but there is some obvious work being done and progress that can be measured by those willing to install it.

Personally, I have no interest in it until things reach a point where it would be more beneficial to have MeeGo on my N900 rather than Maemo. It may never reach that point, but then again, I'm pretty happy with the way Maemo performs for the most part right now. Going to MeeGo in the short term probably means that I'll lose a lot of the applications that I'm used to on Maemo, which will take time to replicate on MeeGo.

For starters, vaporware is a completely inappropriate term. For MeeGo to have been vaporware before today, that would mean I've been imagining using it for the past several months. Which would be odd, because that would by extension mean I'm imagining the documents and graphics and emails and other things I created on my Lenovo. Yes, MeeGo is still immature, but that is not nearly the same as nonexistant.

Texrat it is far far from non exsistant now, Meego has come leaps and bounds since it was "invented" near on if i remember a decade ago and up untill last year it hardly got a look in.

Hey guys, question i know this isnt really in an everyday usable state but i want to just install it and have a look around

http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/t...t-armv7l-n900/

I can see the image file there, but is there a guide out there to put in on (i stress that yes i know its for devs only but really just want to look around and play with it)


Cheers

I agree the term "vaporware" is not appropriate especially now but as we all know up untill last year MeeGo was mostly termed as "vaporware" untill it was picked up and used by a company called Nokia for one but many have played with MeeGo in the past.
