Linux

It seems that my latest webcam pic, which was taken after a successful install of Red Hat 7.1 as a “play and learn” installation, has gotten the attention of non other than Lockergnome’s head Penguin himself, Tony Steidler-Dennison. Like I said in Tony’s comments, I’m still getting paid to be a Windows guy but what’s life without a little variety? 🙂

Heck now that Angela has got a Mac in the house and I’ve got Red Hat installed on a partition of my Win98 machine we officially have 3 different flavors of Windows, and 2 non-Windows OS’s running in our house. (Yeah there’s only two of us, does that make us OS hogs? *L*) So there are plenty of learning opportunities right in my own home! (That doesn’t include the NT Server and XP Pro I have at work to learn with as well!)

Oh, and as far as Tony’s comment on his own post, just keep writing the newsletter dude, that’s been a source of help already!

    Oh someone gets it!

    Dave pointed to something written by Joshua Allen today that talks about the software industry and where their focus should be. I have to admit, it’s a good piece. This line really summarizes my feelings on the whole matter: “And the guy paying for it doesn’t care what language, OS, or database you use as…

    Added the next 3 web albums to the Photo Albums page over my lunch hour today, and changed the link on the blog template to point to this photo page instead of the old one at geocities. I’ve got maybe 2 more albums that I want to do, but will need to rescan and touch…
