Another perfect Intrepid install
,----[ Quote ]
| After that all my customary installations and tweaks went perfectly; not a
| blip. Installing a whole raft of KDE applications in Gnome (Amarok, Kid3.
| Kaffeine, K3b, to name a few). Installing the KDE system settings piece to
| go with them. Configuring Wine and setting up DVDShrink and DVDFab HD
| Decrypter. Codecs and Acrobat Reader and Grip and Startup-manager and a
| bunch of other things from the Medibuntu repositories. Setting up links to
| the shares on my file server. Installing new icons and themes (but not a new
| desktop wallpaper - the coffee-stain Ibex picture is growing on me). All
| this and more took place quickly and easily.

Does Anyone Buy Software Anymore?
,----[ Quote ]
| Big shifts are taking place in the software industry. For most of
| its history, software has been bought much like a load of bread: you
| buy it, consume it, then at a later date you buy some more.
|
| But this model is fading. Large companies, who get some (or much) or
| their software on a license basis, are moving away from purchasing
| software. Models like software as service (SaaS), renting rather
| than buying, are fundamentally altering the software business.
| Also tipping the apple cart are open source and wireless
| applications.
