I have become completely absorbed in the installation of the new openSUSE system.
As I mentioned in the last post, the installation of KDE 4.0 has gone less than optimal. While there are many things I like, there are many things that have to be fixed before I could consider using this software platform on [...]

Most of you know that I have moved away from M$ XP and have even moved my Apple Mac Mini into another room and currently use only Linux on my primary and backup PC.

Every now and then I receive emails asking if people should bring technology to Panama or buy it here. Well, there is no perfect answer. In general, I have found prices in the US to be cheaper. If you can get the technology to Panama as $0, then that may be the better thing. However, [...]

I just felt that I needed a little change. Do you ever feel that way? I decided to change the photo that has been the trademark for this blog for some time. The current photo, in the blog header, was one I took in David in 2003.
You can see that the old park is still [...]

If you are thinking about Linux or are a current Linux User, then the FULL Circle Magazine is worth looking at. While it is more beneficial for UBUNTU variants, it has some good information that most Linux users will be able to use.
All issues are downloaded in a PDF format.

It has been a while since I tried UBUNTU Studio and I have just put it on my backup PC again. It is current with UBUNTO 8.04 and as I stated in my last review of UBUNTU Studio, it is tailored to people that have a higher interest in Audio, Video and graphic arts.
