Another look at Ubuntu 10.4
Reading Time: < 1 minute I upgraded to Fedora 13 beta from the middle of April. Except for a couple of issues that I considered to be yet bugs in the beta version, I consider Fedora 13 to be the best Fedora Linux yet. Nevertheless, I thought to give Ubuntu 10.4 another chance before Fedora 13 goes gold on May 18. I realized later that Ubuntu 10.4 was still in beta testing when I wrote … Continue reading →
Is Ron Paul a Freemason?
Reading Time: < 1 minute Ron Paul giving a Masonic handshake I found this photo on http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread354189/pg1 And I always thought Senator Paul was one of the good guys!

Weekdays, and especially a Monday mean people traveling for business reasons, and they are usually not in … Continue reading →

There is no firewall GUI no … Continue reading →
Dramatically restoring the performance of an exceedingly slow Windows XP machine
Reading Time: 3 minutes Last night a young lady asked me to look at her Windows XP laptop. It was running much slower than it did when she first got it.

But later I realized that she, being the type of girl she is, would not … Continue reading →
