Coming Soon: Landscape Dedicated Server for Ubuntu 

,----[ Quote ]
| Longer term, Canonical is working on a Landscape configuration that service 
| providers (ISPs, MSPs, VARs, etc.) can leverage to remotely manage their 
| customer networks, according to Ken Drachnick, Landscape manager at 
| Canonical. It sounds like the potential Landscape service provider edition 
| will debut sometime in 2010.

Edubuntu followup

,----[ Quote ]
| From what I have seen, heard, and experienced, Edubuntu is almost brutally 
| easy to set up and administer. It is hardly the only choice for this, 
| however. OpenSUSE has kiwi-ltsp, Revolution Linux has a version of K12Linux, 
| and K12Linux, of course, has its own version running on Fedora. Point is, 
| there is a lot of traction growing in the Linux community for thin computing 
| solutions. This will be a very interesting space to watch in the next year or 
| so.

Back with a CrunchBang #!

| WHAT happened to the "p-y-e-o-w-w-w"?
|
| I've lost count of the number of times the sci-fi blaster sound that
| CrunchBang Linux makes when it starts up has made me - or someone in the room
| with me - jump.
|
| Now, it makes an equally sci-fi "boop-bleep-bup" sound which is nice, but
| doesn't have the same dramatic effect of making people duck if your speaker
| volume is maxed-out.

CrunchBang Linux 9.04.01 Review and Screenshot Tour

,----[ Quote ]
| All in all, I admit I had a lot of fun testing Crunchbang. Although some
| people can find the Openbox Desktop and the grey-black color scheme (the
| window borders are a bit too dark, people may have problems seeing the
| buttons) a bit intimidating, Crunchbangâs main strength is that it does not
| make you watch, but explore.

CrunchBang Linux 8.10.02: A review

,----[ Quote ]
| As I become more knowledgable about Linux, the thought has crossed my mind to
| create my own distribution. However, Iâll readily admit Iâm not the most
| technical user, but at least Iâm getting to a point where I could give it a
| try. Using Ubuntu as the base would probably be easiest, starting from a
| minimal install, and using my favoruite window manager: Openbox. It wouldnât
| be a minimalist or leightweight distribution, just one that provided almost
| all of the functionality and none of the bloat.
