Saturday, April 11, 2009. Beginner's Guide To Linux. I have just been so busy with homeschooling and other activities I have not had the time to toy around with Linux like I have wanted to.

Friday, May 1, 2009. Open Clip Art Library. Yesterday I was looking for a photo to throw on one of my other blogs, but I did not want to get into trouble by taking just any picture I found off the net.

http://understandingopensource.blogspot.com/2009/02/wine-runnning-windows-apps-without.html
Monday, February 23, 2009. Wine - Runnning Windows Apps Without Windows. There are so many great Open Source projects that it makes it difficult for us to contribute to them all on a regular basis. So for now, we are picking a different project each month to highlight and support. This month it is Wine. Is an essential tool. At this point it should start to install. Now some apps would install if I used the "setup.exe" and do nothing if I used the "autorun.exe" but in this case where I was in...I will wa...

Saturday, January 31, 2009. Free Software Foundation - A Worthy Cause. Free software is not all about saving money.
