Who is that?


Also, I noticed many people envy us mac users by adding a dock. Why not suck it up, and buy a mac instead of being a poser? 😛

Because we like to show you that we can take all of the good things about your OS (all one of them.) and use them for well under half the cost -- sometimes a tenth of the cost..

How did you get that thing with the system info? Is that a program or something? Thanks, Josh

Too bad it only works on Windows XP 😛. Oh well I'll upgrade from 2000 Pro when I get a new PC.

You should use a transparent backround.

If you want system monitoring information you need to have motherboard monitor installed, which is annoying but i installed it and deleted the start menu program group.

Yes, but keep the gigantic MS flag 😕.

2.6.0 has drivers for pretty much everything. I'm sure just about any wireless card will work now. You can test it quite easily too. Go to the gentoo site, find a mirror in their downloads section, then on the mirror go into the experimental releases and then download and burn one of the live cds with a 2.6.0 kernel. Just boot from the cd. If you have network just from booting that, then you'll have network in linux 🙂

Ok, I'll give it a spin. I know neither of mine would work with Mandrake 8.1, 9.0, or 9.1.

EDIT: I'm downloading this one: ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/gento...livecd-2.4.21-kde-gnome-distcc-07-15-2003.iso
I'm assuming this is one of the newer ones, right? 🙂
REEDIT: Downloading a different one, this time a 2.6 kernel version. Man do I hope Comcast upgrades me to 3Mb dowloads soon...
