I have been putting the pre-release of openSUSE 11.0 through its paces on my backup PC. To this point, it appears that I will be a convert. SUSE was one of the first Linux distributions I used when I first started playing around with Linux back in 2000.
I have been using both the Gnome and [...]

As you may be aware, a few years ago, I have moved to Linux as my primary desktop system. Currently I am using KUBUNTU.

I had a friend ask me to look at his PC the other day. His children need it for school work and Windows was taking forever.
I looked at his aging PC and told mim my recommendation was to replace it. He asked for a recommendation. I told him that he should get one similar to [...]

Today was a day of contrasts. Microsoft posted a drop in earnings of 11% because of a major drop in software sales. I think this stage has been posturing for some time now. You can only put out bloated and over priced software, while missing target dates for so long before it starts catching [...]

I took on a project that has turned out to be a little more difficult than I expected it to be. Maybe there are a couple lessons to be learned, so I will give some details. Part of this is Panama related and part isn’t.
I have a good friend that was buying some items for [...]

I am now running Linux Mint on my AMD 64-bit dual core PC. I am really enjoying the change.
Linux Mint is built off the 32 bit UBUNTU system and should not take advantage of my AMD’s dual CPUs.
However, I have noticed that the system Monitor (Screen Shot above) is displaying activity on both CPUs. Any [...]
