    Re: Free/PC-BSD 9 Released

    I've been a fan of PC-BSD since 7.1 for a variety of reasons. Since 8.2, the installer has been more than impressive. I am particularly impressed with the installer in 9.0. I briefly list a couple...
  7. Re: Why switch to Mint when you can use MGSE in Ubuntu?

    I couldn't agree more. However, I think that the lure of Mint is that the devs have gone out of their way to provide options out of the box:

    Re: Does my dream distro actually exist?

    Ever thought of LFS 7.0? :D

    Seriously, though, it sounds like Ubuntu with gnome-shell or Mint 11 (or 12 when it comes) might be as good as it gets.

    (I mean, really, with so many Windows users, I don't know how else we would have done it!)
  11. Re: Count to 200 before a Windows user resets back to One!

    Speaking of the rules, who said that the count needed to be from different individuals and in different posts? I think the only way to win this one is to think outside the square:

    0*, 1*, 2, 3,...
  12. Re: Count to 200 before a Windows user resets back to One!

    I'm sure you meant 2 as the rules say that the reset gets us back to 1.

    Therefore:

    3

    (However, I doubt we'll even get to 5, as there seem to be a few windows users camping around)

    Maybe...

  15. Re: Count to 200 before a Windows user resets back to One!

    No worries, because I can now start at:

  17. Re: Count to 200 before a Windows user resets back to One!
