I'm inclined to think that once you're locked into that scenario, you're
also going to be locked into proprietary software. Just about the whole
basis of cloud computing is *making* *you* *pay* for every damn thing
that you do (access, store, use, etc.).
It's taking vendor lock-in to the max
and nobody needs Fedora to support this broken idea
what the hell does someone expect from "Fedora on the mobile?"
the same desktop as on a 24" screen?
how should this work?
a completly different desktop for the mobile?
well, why do i noeed Fedora then on it and not whatever?
the DE of the desktop crippled down to a mobile ones?
well, that has happened with GNOME3/Unity/Windows8
leave us with KDE or whatever desktop making WORK with
their computers fuck in peace with all of this and
use whatever suits the gaming front
