Fluxbox on TechTV! #

Matt Olander writes: Today Murray Stokely, the Chief Release Engineer for FreeBSD, and myself did a FreeBSD vs. Linux ‘shootout’ on the technology network TechTV, on their most popular show, The Screen Savers.

The linux guys installed a typical KDE desktop but we wanted something that looked a bit cooler and since I’ve been a Fluxbox user for sometime, we demo’d Fluxbox as our windowmanager.

It was a HUGE hit and I’ve already gotten a ton of emails regarding Fluxbox. Hopefully, you saw a spike in your website traffic today.

It will re-air on TechTV Wednesday, September 3rd, at 9am PST. I don’t have a digital copy of the clip (yet!) but will probably have one on our website soon.

Is it cool or what? :) Check the TechTV website. Thx Tobias for forwarding the email. UPDATE 07.09: The TechTV clip can be found here (.rm - you need to get REALONE player to watch it).
UPDATE 10.09: Get .avi version here. Thx fabokzs for the link.
