Famous last words

“Today should be a little bit of a back to normal day”

Yeah I should have known better than to say that. I blame the lack of sleep last night for that momentary lack of common sense. I’d forgotten just how new a couple of my fellow employees are and how many things they haven’t actually done for themselves yet. I’d also forgotten just how long it’s been since I had to do those things and how rusty I would be in trying to help them.

Have I mentioned lately how much I hate our envelope printer? That was a good two hours out of my day, again!

OK, I need to finish up some stuff and get out of here. Maybe I’ll get more sleep tonight? 🙂

    LindowsCD

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Looks like Lindows has released a bootable CD version. They’re charging $29.95 for the CD’s. Funny thing is, this seems an awful lot like Knoppix, and that didn’t cost me anything to download. 🙂 So, is there any major difference between the two, all you Linux experts?
