Running Linux on Zune - kinda.

Linux on Zune

Apparently ‘Mys Videl’ has managed to get Linux running on Microsoft’s Zune at least “partway”.

‘Mys Videl’ tells all on Zune Boards, “I’ve been working on it for quite awhile and has a lot of bugs to work out and a lot of features to work out. It currently has to be booted while synced and has limited capability’s but I’ve at least got it partway working.”

Linux will open up many new doors for new programs and features on the Zune. And as ‘Mys Videl’ says, “Linux on the Zune will just be plain sexy.” I agree. Can we pleeaaaase call it ‘Zlinux’!?
