More @djsundog inspired hardware nostalgia: the Chumby!
@nivex @djsundog oh god, I think I still have one of those in the basement. What a pile of shit! It was pretty terrible.
@minego @djsundog It did have limited usefulness, being designed around Flash applets. Even more so now that the "cloud" service is basically gone.
The price was right though: I won it at Ohio LinuxFest many years ago.
@nivex @djsundog I had 2. I won one at some conference, and my boss gave me another.
It was very unresponsive to user input, which really made it feel terrible to use.
@minego @nivex it may have been intimidated by the birbs
@djsundog @nivex What!? Birbs aren't intimidating!
@minego @nivex try to see birb from chumby viewpoint
@djsundog @nivex Well it should have thought of that before it decided to be all chewy!
