Re: June 29th, 2007



After more than fifteen years of owning and using Apple computers, I
decided a few weeks ago, for a number of reasons, to move in a different
direction.

I liked the original apple IIe back when it was first made. It was
quite impressive for its time.

Hellooooooo, Linux! I've been downloading and testing a number of
distributions for the past few days and I must say that I'm impressed with
some of what I've seen. Many are quite sophisticated unlike what I saw
when I first worked with a version of Linux for the Power Mac about ten
years ago.

Any particular distribution which is to your liking?
