Tantalus vs pr0metheus – They’re Not Even Close
When I set out to build pr0metheus I was not trying to set any records. In fact I was planning on reusing a lot of the parts from Tantalus when building it.

Microsoft has tried it a couple times now with Windows RT and now Windows 10 in S mode. I think where Microsoft fails is probably where Google … Continue reading My First Dive into Chromebooks
