The New York Times is running an article about Obama and his Blackberry, and how he’ll most likely have to give up the gadget.

This is news to me, but I guess on second thought it makes sense, sort of. The article also mentions that Obama is planning to work some technology into the oval office, such as a laptop computer. I’ve read some other articles debating whether Obama might consider using an open source laptop. Wouldn’t that be interesting? If the White House cares about security, I would expect them to want to him to use an open source laptop, or at least a Macintosh, which is partly open source.
