Managing Videos in Linux is easier!

| Normally i watch few DVDs per week. When i was using windows, i used to use a 
| disk image creating programme such as "Alcohol120%" or "diskmagic" to create 
| the image and watch it later when i'm free. It also enable you create a whole 
| collection of DVDs right on your Hard drive. And if you need, you can easily 
| burn them later.

| Linux has a built-in iso image creation programme, which makes your life 
| easier. I use "ubuntu feisty fawn". You can just right click on the disk and 
| select "copy disk". Following window will appear.

A Mac like dock for your Linux desktop

,----[ Quote ]
| That fancy row of icons at the bottom of the Mac OS X desktop is pretty good, 
| you have to admit. Hence the multitude of copy-cats that followed on other 
| OS’s, none of which really matching the quality of the OS X dock. However, 
| with advances in 3D desktop support, Avant Window Navigator (AWN) has stepped 
| up, and is beginning to mark its territory, all over the OS X dock.

| If you run KDE, you aren't just stuck with the standard "kicker"
| panel to operate as your app launcher and taskbar. There are a
| bunch of nice panel replacements that will spice up your desktop
| nicely. The ones that I've used and tested are kooldock,
| kxdocker and the nkotb kiba-dock...
