Looks interesting. Haven’t done the download and install yet but looks worth giving a try.

Linux Today – Infoworld: “Get the Truth on Linux Management” Report
“Anyone who has read a tech publication or visited a major tech news site has invariably seen Microsoft ads touting random ‘facts’ which are questionable at best.”

Like the ones just to the right of where the above was copied from… 🙁
Missing robot named Phil
Philip K. Dick is missing. Not the American science fiction writer whose novels spawned hit films such as “Blade Runner” and “Total Recall” — he died more than 20 years ago — but a state-of-the-art robot named after the author.

And they think he may turn up on an online auction site. Imagine that…

Live CD’s for x86 and powerPCs. KDE style… Runs rather well on the iBook. Only problem is the wireless isn’t working. Downloading the x86 version live cd to try now.

Sounds like it could be. And would make them a posible player in not only computer/internet, but cable tv services and voip as well. Watch out boys, here comes Google!

Bit of a problem with VeriChip’s implantable chip. A little too easy to clone…
hard drive died on the newest iBook g4 this morning. Am going to just order a larger one and do a restore from the last backup I did which is about 2 weeks old. So lost a bit of mail and maybe a bookmark or two but that’s about it. Most of the stuff I want to keep up with I put on here so I can search from anywhere there is a computer. Glad I got this old machine up and running again day before yesterday or I would be really pissed. As it is I’ll have to come off of a couple of hundred bucks or so depending on how big a drive I get.
Looks like a real pain in the ass to replace it too.

More later…
Update – may have been overheated. shut it off till it cooled to the touch and tried it again and no more clicking and farting. So… i think the drive is failing and is the cause of the heat but I am not certain. guess I order another drive and replace it whether or not it gives more trouble just to be on the safe side.
From what they have to say at
http://forums.xlr8yourmac.com/drivedb/search.drivedb.lasso
(and filling in the blanks) the machine I have shows definate signs of failure, which is the bad news. the good news is that the drive can be replaced with any notebook drive that will fit, so I am not tired to an apple supplied part.
other bad news is that the drive I spent several hours deciding on, is out of stock from the manufactruers web site. So back to the drawing board or get another 60 gb drive, I guess. But if I’m gonna spend a couple of hours replacing this thing I would rather put the largest drive in that will fit as I keep maxing the 60 gb that’s in there now out.
