More on my reference design for an open game console
I found this the other day and think it would be perfect for the Game Distribution network for my non-existing open console. It is called OpenCDS and it is being used for the open-source game OpenFrag.
From OpenFrag’s website (http://wiki.openfrag.org/wiki/OpenCDS_About):
OpenCDS is a Valve$$ Steam$$ inspired application, where you are able to easily browse, download, manage, update, run games. OpenCDS is completely written in Java and therefore a very cross-platform application. With the ability to customize your OpenCDS, using skins and plugins, you are able to receive the application in your language. With a sophisticated download and manage system, you are able to keep your enlisted games up to date, and therefore opt-in for optimal game experience.
I’m not sure if this is the same project as on the Java OpenCDS site (https://opencds.dev.java.net/).
Ok, now I definitely won't watch American Idol
I just found out a handful of people have recording contracts! Irish-girl, Australian-guy and some others.
No American Idol for me

Proposal: A Reference Design for an Open Source Game Console
As I’ve been playing with MythTV, Ubuntu and the like for a year now, I keep coming up with the idea of an open source game console. I’ve figured that someone would have thought of this before, but, I can never find anything on the interweb about it.
My idea is (relatively) simple: come up with a list of hardware and a Linux OS that can play games out to a TV/HDTV/Monitor. The kind of games I’m talking about are the quick arcade games (Extreme Tux Racer), RPG (Westnoth), fighting (Paintown), etc. I’m not sure exactly what games, but, the eventual goal would be for teams and indies to make games that run on the console. Maybe even a way to buy games via digital distribution.
