Could Pandora open up Linux games?

,----[ Quote ]
| A stealth-mode startup is readying a Linux-based handheld gaming device with 
| WiFi, USB, and a 4.3-inch 800x480 touchscreen. The "Pandora," headquartered 
| at OpenPandora.org for now, runs Linux on a next-generation ARM SoC with 
| integrated OpenGL 2.0 compliant graphics processor.

| Where the new model does differ, however, is with the addition of a 320 x 240 
| QVGA touchscreen (with stylus), and a complete redesign of the gamepad, 
| moving away from the previous, mushroom-like protrusion to a more flush, 
| PSP-esque controller.

US Copyright Office grants abandonware rights

,----[ Quote ]
| What does this mean? Well, those retro games -- classic or otherwise --
| that you can't seem to find anywhere can now be preserved without fear
| of ramifications. Although it is still unlawful to distribute the old
| games, free or otherwise, rarely do any abandonware cases go to court.
| The ruling is more symbolic than anything, but a step in the right
| direction.
