WINE Whine WINE
http://delducagroup.com –
I was recently surprised to discover that many people are not familiar with WINE, what it does, or how easy it can be to make it do it. That, coupled with the recent post-beta, stable release of WINE itself, pushed me to help get the word out.

http://www.linuxloop.com –
The Ubuntu Eee project has just announced they will be selling SD cards pre-loaded with the latest version of Eee Ubuntu. This SD card can then be inserted into the Eee PC and you can run Eee Ubuntu right off of it. This is a great idea, but it would be even better if the cards were sold in stores along with the Eee PC.

Is Ubuntu really easier? Is Pepsi really better than Coke?
http://jaysonrowe.wordpress.com –
If you have followed my blog for any extended amount of time, you know that I have tried and used an extensive number of Linux distributions. I have finally found my home distro with openSUSE, and that is where I will stay for the foreseeable future. I do, and will still keep up with what’s going on in the entire Linux community, since it interests me immensely.

Find The Command Behind The Menu Entry
http://ubuntu-tutorials.com –

I’ve found it useful a number of times, and I have two three methods of finding out what the command actually is. If there are any Gnome devs reading this, could finding the properties be made simpler directly from the menu itself?

Make Linux Faster and Smoother!
http://sayakb.blogspot.com –
If your computer has 1GB+ RAM, you would be hardly needing your swap space in most cases. It is evident that the RAM is much faster than your hard drive (A good 677MHz DDR2 can give 3000+ MiB/s while a standard hard drive can give around 50MiB/s). So it's better to let the RAM handle most of the processes.

http://www.linuxplanet.com –
Last week we introduced ourselves to Sidux, the excellent Debian Sid implementation that makes Debian Sid a bit friendlier. Even though I thought I gave a number of reasons why a user might prefer Sidux to Debian Sid, or Ubuntu, or some other Debian derivative, they apparently were not clear to a number of readers. So here they are in nice bullet-pointed lists:

http://news.cnet.com –
For the most part, on this blog, I try to convince readers to do something defensive on their computers - like a parent nagging a child to eat their vegetables. Only once have I put my foot down, so to speak, saying unequivocally last year that all Windows XP users should employ DropMyRights.

http://blogs.pcmag.com –
Every year or so, there's a new Linux distro darling. Last year's was Ubuntu, and I've lost track of what this year's favorite penguin might be. But a lot of newcomers to Linux seem to get the impression that a new distro is better than an older package because there'll be more attention paid to new technologies and easier user interfaces. In fact, pretty much the opposite is true.
