Linux shite.

[masque12]

I'm typing this post using Ubuntu Linux on a laptop at work. I didn't install it, it's merely running live off of the cd. I didn't have to fuck with anything to get it to connect to the internets, it auto-detected it just fine. I can even log into GAIM to bullshit with other people. It's been years since I've used Linux, but they have obviously made some serious strides forward in user-friendliness. I already installed OpenOffice.org on my Win2K computer at home in lieu of digging out the M$ Office CDs, and I was able to open my files just fine. If I can make sure that the other computers at home can communicate with Linux, and I can view all my media files, then I'll be using this from now on.
