[Ubuntu-be] Ubuntu.be - Wegetit.be

@Wouter: I'm willing to do whatever I can to help out Ubuntu.be in any
possible way. It's my goal in live to keep fighting Microsoft,
eventhough it's a long and difficult road. But then again, every system
sold with Ubuntu instead of Windows means a new believer in this OS. Now
I have found a supplier who delivers complete systems without any OS
pre-installed. I work with this supplier for quite some time now, and
their products are very reliable.  Just let me know how I can help you
guys out.

> yeah, but if the usb ports aren't native on your system (like adding a cart) speeds might be reduced.. (bottleneck..)anyway. Looks like USB 3.0 isn't going to overtake USB 2.0 in the the next year or so..I'd say we keep our spent budgets low and go for 2.0

> 1.) wth is TUX used in cereal commercials (http://goo.gl/fb/Yr00e [video])2.) @Eric, would it be possible to work something out between Ubuntu-be and wegetit.be?3.) I know Canonical has bronze, silver and gold partners, but maybe we can get our own certificate or what so ever for Belgian shops who sell/give Ubuntu stuff.. We get them on our site and they can put our certificate on their. That way we have something to offer to companies who 1. sell Ubuntu machines; 2. take the trouble to give us their info (to put them on our site). Maybe this triggers something so we get more sellers..
