Earcandy is the next cool thing you want in Linux if you are a media buff

,----[ Quote ]
| Earcandy is a PulseAudio volume manager, which for me is probably the first 
| thing that i ever liked about pulse audio. This volume manager could mute 
| music in your amarok or rhythombox or literally any music player when you 
| play some video in youtube(i am not lying) or VLC or other video players. 
| Mute is not the right word, but instead the music slowly fades away, and the 
| sound from video player fades in. Sounds promising eh? But it is much better 
| than you think.

ATI vs. NVIDIA on Linux - the showdown

,----[ Quote ]
| Almost five years have passed since my last formal comparison of ATI and
| NVIDIA on Linux. At the time, it was only a brief mention as part of a larger
| tutorial article, and the result was "an NVIDIA card three times cheaper is
| three times faster". Since then, I've let the impressions left on me remain,
| and have been pretty religious in buying NVIDIA hardware, to ensure
| performance under Linux.
