gOS and Everex Introduce MyMiniPC with MySpace Apps

Everex MyMiniPC and gOS Space 2.9 introduce Linux to the 100,000,000 MySpace Users

EMERYVILLE, California — April 7, 2008 — Good OS (gOS) and Everex today introduced the limited edition MyMiniPC* running gOS Space 2.9, a special version of gOS Linux made for MySpace users, featuring brand new MySpace Apps just weeks after the MySpace API launch. MyMiniPC targets MySpace users with a glossy white case, 3D desktop, and a media center dock stacked with MySpace and Web 2.0 folders for News, Photos, Videos, Music, TV and Movies, and more. At one and half inches tall and weighing two pounds, the $499 MyMiniPC is the most compact and premium gOS desktop ever, aimed at the 100,000,000 MySpace users.

“The MySpace Developer Platform is all about embracing developers and empowering them to create new and exciting ways for friends to connect on MySpace and share their experiences with one another,” said Chuck Rosendahl, the Managing Director of MySpace San Francisco. “The MyMiniPC is the perfect appliance for MySpace users and those whose activities are consistently tied to the web and less to the desktop. It is an ideal solution for getting access quickly to the MySpace apps that matter most to our users.”

The MyMiniPC with gOS Space dock shows off some of the newest MySpace Apps: “Super Mood,” “Super Graffiti,” “Super Quotes,” and “Current Time.” With Super Mood, users add super sized emoticons and personal updates to their MySpace profiles; with Super Graffiti, users draw pictures on their friends’ MySpace profiles; with Super Quotes, users select fun quotes to display on their profiles; and with Current Time, users add digital clocks to their pages that display their local times in different colors. These MySpace apps can be found at http://www.pimpmyapps.com.

In addition to MySpace Apps, the gOS Space dock introduces expandable icons: “MySpace,” “News,” “Photos,” “Videos,” “Music,” “TV and Movies,” “Work,” and “Fun.” Clicking the MySpace icon expands to shortcuts for the entire MySpace navigation bar, while other icons pop open the most popular websites for content. For example, clicking “TV and Movies” reveals Hulu, NBC, CBS, and other sites where users can watch full-length TV episodes from popular shows such as “Family Guy,” “The Simpsons,” and “Late Night with Conan O’Brien.”

“gOS Space combines an awesome user interface with social networking to take Linux mainstream yet again, this time with MySpace instead of Wal-Mart,” said Jim Zemlin, President of the Linux Foundation. “To me, gOS Space can be the face of Linux for the MySpace generation.”

Like MySpace’s founder and first friend, “Tom,” gOS Space’s founder, “Dave,” is your first friend on the desktop. Dave’s friendly face, labeled “Ask Dave…”, is a shortcut to Dave’s MySpace profile where users can ask about MyMiniPC, gOS Space, and its included MySpace Apps, as well as add Dave as a friend.

“MyMiniPC” is the perfect PC for my ‘MySpace’ generation,” said Dave Liu, gOS’s CEO. “It’s the ultimate media center, without a TV tuner or even a TV. Inside is gOS Space, Linux beautifully designed for the 100,000,000 MySpace users who consume the majority of their media online.”

With Everex’s award winning design, MyMiniPC features a glossy white case, high-performance processor, DVD recorder, HD audio and digital video output. Read below for additional hardware information.
