I saw a Nike ad with a guy asking questions and him looking like a puppy that had just shat on the keyboard of his owner's newest, shiniest laptop. Was that for real? Did it get released?

Good luck to his wife, she's got some spunk in her. More women in this world brandishing sand wedges and it'd be generally a better place, methinks.

We had same question a little while ago in relation to wikipedia entry - I suppose same answer applies: wait until release.

With an alpha or a beta now and again, and not being side-tracked by this issue and that, I'm sure that enough people will get wind of the fact that CB has now gone the Debian route. It was mentioned in the DW newsletter, and look how the hpd has shot up.

Just wondering, why do you do that?

Probably worth a donation huh? How 'bout a pic of you or mrsmzsade in a #! T-shirt!

(I know, not strictly Crunchbang but I do wonder sometimes if Philip's bought up the rights to Conky.)

spaces after those "->" - or new lines - would "linkify" them.

I think the (enforced) changing of passwords is a good idea in the corporate world. A few years ago we were having such problems that we made the accountants change their passwords every month. It's also good practice in light of the problems these forums have experienced, especially for m* ... oh i'm not allowed to use the m word.

Also very advisable if you've recently logged in over unsecure wifi. Not sure why https login isn't implemented ... there's a shedload of computing power on that server. Is it the cost of a cert? How about a self-signed? What kind of messages do the major browsers put up for self-signed certs these days? Are they prohibitively scary?

NewCityVegas: A zillion thanks for taking time out of your obviously busy schedule to post us this gem of an informative article.

So 1990s - I tried stuff like this years and years ago - now I've got over this phase. As a peripatetic I place more stress on being able to setup/packup in 5 minutes flat. I also appreciate the ability to switch off each of those wall-warts at will, individually. Flexibility and troubleshooting ability ranks highly - and do you really want your modem and router under your desk? Thought not. The other overwhelming feeling is that I definitely wouldn't want to sit at and much less type at those desktops and keyboards in the pics.

You used there and their in the same sentence on a Linux site without any errors. That's bad form. Considering your Swedish I'll let you off.

Same here. I never use printers. Keep post-install. Bluetooth: yes: Printers: no, Java: no.

Haha another one! I'm on the point of giving mine up too - for a 'netbook' so Nvidia nor ATI will likely figure in my decision. (Oh i can report that Lucid Xubuntu suspends *and* hibernates - after a fashion. It's using Nouveau.)

You said 'friend' right?

Place some faith in Nouveau, or delay just a little (not too long, I know what it's like living with a dv5000).

What's with the quest for the everlasting storage device? News flash: Writing lots of files reduces the life of your HDD.

Google it. It's just FUD. Any observed effects are demonstrably just as prevalent in magnetic media and will not in any practical sense shorten the life of the hardware.
