http://opolinux.blogspot.com/2009/01/till-ready.html

Linux Experiences and Helps for beginners. Wednesday, January 21, 2009. I have been adding more information to the pottery section of this site, so the Linux Helps have been a little neglected. To tide things over, I have put some links to other useful sites on the right of this page. PCLinuxOS 2007 is getting rather dated, but I rather like the look of tinyME 2008.1, which is an offshoot of PCLinuxOS, and is more modern, as its name suggests. Using VirtualBox, I have had a brief dabble with tiny...TinyM...

Linux Experiences and Helps for beginners. Wednesday, January 7, 2009. First Post. How I got started with Linux. A brief history of how I came to use Linux. I found a magazine at our local shop with a little Linux Magazine and a couple of CD disks with something called Fedora Core 2 on it. I read the little magazine and took the plunge! Could XP keep Me? With the arrival of Windows XP, I thought my Windows problems would be over. XP was a huge improvement over ME, and I actually bought a copy! I have hea...

Two worlds not able to meet, the love of the sailor for the Mermaid and the Mermaid for the sailor. Has she sunk him with her anchor? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
