[News] GNU/Linux Replaces Windows in Another Home

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Windows is Dead (almost). Long Live Free & Open Source Software, i.e. Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| VirtualBox 3.02 seems to be really good though. The USB pass through and 
| auto-filtering is just brilliant (so Ubuntu doesn’t alert when you plug in 
| the iPod when the VM is running; it goes straight through to the Windows VM). 
| It does seem to take quite a long time for the whole Windows/iTunes thing to 
| settle down after I’ve plugged the iPod in but it might be just because it’s 
| a big 120G iPod anyway… But it isn’t a major issue.

Migrating to Linux, Part 1: Sharing a Room With Windows

,----[ Quote ]
| My experiment with Ubuntu was so successful that I added a netbook
| preinstalled with Ubuntu Remix version designed for small-screen netbooks. I
| discovered that the Linux OS under the guise of the Puppy Linux flavor could
| co-exist on the same computers already running Windows without even changing
| to a dual-boot configuration. (More on this approach later.)
