That was a refreshing piece. It's good to see Ubuntu doing so well, and it is pleasing to hear that 11.04 will have some focus on more behind the scenes stuff like making more use of powerful GPUs. VLC is already doing some of that (an area where Mac users can envy their Linux brothers a bit). Hopefully many other projects will follow with those sorts of under the hood improvements. 10.04 was slick, Good work guys

VLC is already doing some of that (an area where Mac users can envy their Linux brothers a bit). You are aware that VLC does work on Mac, right?

  The point was that only the Linux and Windows ports of VLC have GPU acceleration currently.

    Ah. I (mistakenly, it seems) thought that VLC used the framework that Apple released awhile back for hardware accel as well. Whoops. Ouch, at -3 for that, though.
