Some tricks to keep your old PC purring like a '57 Chevy

,----[ Quote ]
| If you feel stuck by that, there is an elegant way to change 
| operating systems that should work on your old computer. Go to 
| www.ubuntu.com and take a look at Ubuntu. Unlike Windows, it's 
| free and isn't as demanding of resources. So it can add new 
| life to an old computer.

Running Alpha Karmic on The Thinkpad X301

,----[ Quote ]
| Iâve argued for a while now that one of Canonicalâs primary 
| contributions to the Linux distribution world is in the polish, 
| the look and feel of the desktop. Karmic continues this 
| tradition, with an attractive, aesthetically pleasing UI. While 
| some of the decisions â the introduction of the Growl-like 
| notification system, for example â have been controversial in 
| some quarters, I find them to be welcome additions to a rapidly 
| improving user experience.

Dell Latitude with ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| Have you ever have an aged laptop, with pentium III inside and 
| 256 MB of Memory, and you feel that it more worth to be a paper 
| weight than a laptop, don't worry , Turn your sluggish windows 
| based laptop into , Ubuntu based laptop with so much fun and 
| not much lagging ( of course it is lagging, it is pentium 
| III!!!) but not that annoying compared to windows !!!

60 Thousand Russian Teachers Will Learn Linux by the End of 2009

,----[ Quote ]
| As part of the initiative, Russian schools have already received CDs with
| Linux and other open-source tools distribution kits so that such solutions
| could be installed even in the schools with no broadband internet access. But
| of course such a large-scale deployment is not that easy to carry out without
| help of qualified professionals who can make it possible.
