It's an exciting time to be a Linux user for sure!  New versions of Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Crunch Bang Linux and PCLinuxOS will all be out soon and are eagerly awaited by their many fans.   As soon as there are some final releases available, I will make sure to have those reviews posted on the sister site, so stay tuned.

well the forum is officially gone, due to lack of interest.  I'm afraid that I'm still pretty obscure trafficwise so until things pick up, the forum is toast :(

I should take the time here to apologise to my loyal readers (there must be one of you somewhere) for not being dutiful in posting.  I have been very busy working on artwork.  The better I get at using the GIMP, the more I obsessively create.  I get on obsessive kicks and this one might really last a long time since no piece of art is ever the same (unless you are a forgery artist but I'm nowhere near that good lol) At any rate, I shall endeavor to try harder and in the meantime, if you can't find me writing, you can always find me "painting" at DeviantArt.
