Redbox rebooting
Posted on September 7th, 2009 @ 3:09 am
Sadly, my very first post wasn’t quite nerdy awesome enough to accurately represent me, so I’m reposting something I put on my family blog, ThePriebes.com, earlier this year. Back in January, Brent Fuchs and I happened to be at a Redbox right at 1am, and found it rebooting automatically. Cool stuff, even though it didn’t have our movie.
Since I posted this originally, I’ve talked to a guy who works for Redbox, and he assures me they’re all Dell computers. Kind of makes you wonder why they didn’t go with a Linux distro like Ubuntu. Probably would have saved them thousands and thousands of dollars.
