Wayne is thinking of switching one of his boxes over to Ubuntu.
What are you waiting for, Wayne?? Even Anna uses it and seems to like it. At least her laptop is much quicker than it ever was with XP and she can do (just about) anything with it that she could do with Windows. Most of all, it’s fun to watch her play with tarballs, sudo apt-gets and compilers.
That’s what technology is for… playing.
And when did your blog become a splog? Geez, man.

It is coming- by weeks end if I can fit it end the hectic schedule. That and i am thinking about investing in a MAC as well...(dual boot) but a Mac none-the-less- which is truly new ground for me truly (not my family who all use Mac). I want to be as OS educated and diverse as I can! (Of course I am eyeing the T60 series from Lenovo and god it looks good- being a die hard fan of the X-Series- I guess I can opt for the pain of Vista there.)
Thanks for the encouragement and instilling in me the desire to experiment. I used to use Linux alot (CLI)- a couple of years post-vax- but it has always been the lack of software that has held me back. Now it seems I can find most of what I need in a comparable fashion.
Going forward I am going to try the experiment on the x40 (which has seen better days- I am rough on laps, going through one a year) and then if I like it- go with a ripping Ubuntu desktop for the hell of it.
