PCLinuxOS Rediscovered

,----[ Quote ]
| Now that I'm back on PCLinuxOS, I feel a lot more comfortable with my PC, and 
| my productivity (if I do something productive, that is) has increased 10 
| folds, as compared to Windows XP, and just about a billion times if compared 
| to Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon.

Switching from KDE to WinXP #2

| Conclusion
| 
| I have looked at several features that KDE?s Konqueror has but that
| WinXP's Explorer doesn't have. I have also mentioned a few of the
| things I don't like about Explorer and often why I think Konqueror's way of 
| doing it is better. You may have noticed that there is nothing positive 
| about Explorer. That is true and it is not for lack of trying. The fact is, 
| for me, the way I work, there is just nothing special about Explorer. I 
| didn't find any feature that struck me as being especially cool or useful 
| that Konqueror didn?t also have.
| 
| Switching from KDE to WindowsXP at work has seriously impaired my 
| productivity.

howto enhance your workflow with beryl

,----[ Quote ]
| Problem is, I spread my applications across all 4 desktops, so
| that things feel uncluttered when I'm working on an application.
| However, when you want to keep an eye on several applications at
| a time, it's impossible - except, if you have beryl. What I do
| is set one of the corners of my desktop to activate the scale
| plugin to show all windows from all desktops (see here for a
| more detailed explanation). I also make sure that it shows
| minimised windows.
