Need to be careful with "Libre" untilnwe know for certain we actually can deliver full schematics and layout.

*Linux sortof leaves out bsd and other OS possibilities.

From this list, PowerTop is my favorite.

PowerNote, or Note Of Power?

PowerNote is the name of a company (see website) so it's a no-go.
"Note of power" doesn't sound like a name to me but it could be used like a slogan:
PowerTop
A note of power!

For the name: I would like to propose a name to add to the list that has nothing to do with IT world:

"Vaquitas!"

It is the name of a wales species with just around 20 more members in the full marien world.

Thanks,

PeopleBook because it gives POWER  to the Peoples.
The Progressive Power Community PeopleBook.

In fact even if "PowerLibre" it's nice, but we need to be careful because until we will be designed the full schematics and layout we don't know exactly if we will need some chips that need some particular nda...

As many votes are very old, I have activated the possibility to update the old vote for who like it.

Yesterday I have voted also for Powertop, although I'm not happy with the name. Because it sounds a little bit like Desktop. But I also haven't a better name so far. PowerNote would be perfect, but frank.woo has mentioned it's already a company name :(

PeopleBook sounds very good to me and is very well fitting to our PPC slogan.

Or maybe "VirtusLiber"? This is the Latin translation of PowerBook.

Today I would vote for PeopleBook :)

I'm quite fond of the seminal "Power McPowerface". Any takers?

robyinno

So you want that we need to add to the poll the name : "Power McPowerface" ?

AccuBook as a name came to my mind...

Accurate and Book sized?

Power or PPC in the name isn't all that required is it?

robyinno

So you want to add "AccuBook".
Power or PPC are not string required inside the name.  :)

I would like to add PowerNotebook :)

...but I don't know if we are in time for this option and we are using this as a hashtag in Twitter, maybe is not fair play
