Admission and Lesson - Don't Overcomplicate Linux!

http://community.zdnet.co.uk

This is the kind of thing I don't particularly enjoy writing, but as I have been blogging about learning Linux, and I've tried to approach as an "ordinary PC user" would, I think it's important to pass along lessons learned from mistakes. Of course, my approach to Linux is tainted by my very long history with Unix, and perhaps that's what happened in this case...

Is Selling Linux Evil?

http://www.cooltechzone.com

Not too ago, I stumbled onto a post that was created by a rather irate blogger who felt that Ubuntu was getting the shaft. Apparently someone had decided to "sell" Ubuntu CDs, with packaging, on eBay. In this article, I want to seriously examine what, if any, harm was done here.

Can Linux Replace Windows - Maybe!

http://community.zdnet.co.uk

I loaded Ubuntu Linux on my test laptop a couple of weeks ago more or less on a lark, thinking I would just see for myself what the current state of the Linux world is today. When I saw how easily it loaded (and how quickly!), and how well it worked, I decided to try loading it on my main laptop to see how that would go... After two weeks of loading a variety of different Linux distributions ...

Tough love: Linux needs more haters

http://blogs.zdnet.com

I’ve been spending far too much time reading a blog recently. Normally I dislike reading blogs, or as my friend from the IT News site “the Register” Andrew Orlowski calls them; “Wikki W**kers”. They are usually rather vacuous and the pressure to write something, anything, to attract attention means there is very little worth reading...However, the LinuxHaters blog is rather different

This is not a GTK+ 3.0 blog post

http://flors.wordpress.com

I have been trying to follow the intense debate tagged GTK+ 3.0 and actually covering a lot more, from the longest post to the shortest. If I was into film criticism I would say that the story is evolving from decadentism to apocalypticism, with elements of final time, esoterism, conspiracy, dualism and reincarnation. It’s confusing… but solvable, since confusion is just a mental state.

Helping Hands and openSUSE-Tutorials off to a great start

http://www.bryen.com

We’ve had three sessions so far, and each time we host an event, the number of visitors to the #opensuse-gnome IRC channel increases. Last Friday, we actually had a record channel peak of 88 visitors for our Evolution mail client presentation.
