Tonight I tried Xubuntu 7.04 on my HP pc. I ran the OS as a live distro and it works like a dream. I would urge all readers of this blog to try Xubuntu because it is an excellent and fast OS for both old and new computers. Thanks to Linux Format Magazine for providing the latest version of Xubuntu on their montly DVD. I find LXF to be one of the best linux magazines on the market – explore their fantastic website!

23/11/2007GNU Nano is a text editor for Unix and Unix-like systems such as Linux. Recently I saw a reference to Nano in Linux Format Magazine where it was claimed that Nano is becoming a very popular text editor. I wonder why this is so. If anyone has any information about Nano and its increasing popularity please let me know. Thank you kindly.
On Wednesday I signed up for Box.net (online storage software) and Zoho writer (online word, spreadsheet, presentation software, email and much more). I’d certainly recommend these free programmes to you – try them and explore the possibilities!
