Anzhofen Is Coming To Intel Atom Netbooks

[Michael]

The news about a UK magazine wanting to use the Phoronix Test Suite for their hardware testing is great news (even if I'm not on that side of the ocean).

It's Imagine Publishing.

Part of the reason for picking small towns is also for Google ranking on the city... The PTS Anzhofen announcement is now number one and two when querying Anzhofen in the US

Place 10 here in Germany. But that's right, there probably aren't that much web pages about Anzhofen. (The first web page in German Google is about Anzhofen, and then there is stuff like: "Yahoo local search: Companies and shops in Anzhofen, ie. Autogenerated sites)

My codename scheme tends to follow picking cities from a particular state/region for a given period of releases. Either towns that I have been to and like or just town names that sound well, unique, and just aren't incredibly common (don't wait for a PTS Desktop "Munich" release).

Augustiner (Helles + Edelstoff)!

I don't like "Wei?bier" (what's that called in English?), so I do not like Franziskaner...

Wheat beer

And unfortunately I moved away from Munich (400km), so I can't get Augustiner that easy . But I'm visiting my parents regularly (at leas once a month), so there is my chance to get Augustiner.

Surprisingly I can get Augustiner imported to one shop here in Chicago, but it's at about a +300% cost of what I pay for a bottle in Munich.

And here is some information for anyone that wants to follow this discussion:

Go to http://www.openstreetmap.org/.

Find Munich (M?nchen)
Zoom in on Munich
Find Gr?benzell (NWW of Munich)
Zoom in on Gr?benzell
Find Olching (NWW of Gr?benzell) and Zoom In
Find Maisach and Zoom in on Maisach (until you can see houses!)
Find Anzbach (north of Maisach, a single road ends there)

Actually, I have been right by Anzhofen before... I knew it was in Bavaria and close to Munich but until looking at a map and your directions I didn't realize it was that close to Gr?benzell/Maisach/Olching/Gernlinden.

Not Anzbach, Anzhofen of course. OMG.

And here is the irony: In the place where I live I can't get Augustiner, but more than enough Franziskaner.

About Anzhofen: You will only find a street on Google Maps. Fortunately there is OSM.

I do not find it bad that you used it's name, I wast just very surprised.

Yes I hope we will NEVER stop making good beer.

What's your favorite? Franziskaner and Augustiner here...

Just a question: have you been some time in the region of Munich? I know names like Anzhofen & Gernlinden cause I used to live there for like 24 years ... (or do you look this names up somewhere?)

I'm in Munich / Bavaria a couple times a year. Never to Anzhofen though, I didn't realize it was *that* small.

Only Anzhofen sounded a bit strange to me 'cause that's like 5 houses or so...

Where do you get the codenames from?

Codename summary:

Phoronix Test Suite 1.x codenames were Trondheim, Malvik, Orkdal, Tydal, and Selbu. These are towns within S?r-Tr?ndelag, Norway.

Phoronix Test Suite 2.x codenames so far Sandtorg, Bardu, and Lenvik. These are towns within Troms, Norway. This theme will continue until Phoronix Test Suite 3.0 when it changes up again.

PTS Desktop Live releases to date have all been towns within Bayern: Gernlinden, Loderhof, and Anzhofen. This theme will continue until the 2011.x releases or once Bavaria stops producing good beers , haven't decided yet.

I'm from Bavaria and well, while I think it's nice that you chose the name of a Bavarian "City", I'd like to ask why it's the name of a small village in the middle of nowhere ?
