I noticed in another post that there are a lot of Ubuntu users who are also amateur radio operators. I just thought I'd start a thread to see how many of us there are.

I'm KU4IS and I've been a...

Before the internet existed I and a friend of mine had a little contest to come up with a real sounding name that wasn't in the phone book. He won with the name "Doobit Schnood." However, I adopted...

Oops...not ready for work. My boss walked in just as I scrolled down to that one.

I was ROTFL. My eyes were watering from the beginning.

His analysis is exactly correct IMHO. I don't know how well System 76 is doing, but I know other small computer companies who have tried selling Linux machines with little to no success because of...

What will be bad is if they produce and market a Linux line and nobody buys them, which may also be likely, seeing how badly sales of other Linux boxes has been in the past. I talked with a Dell rep...

If you install Ubuntu server, it's pretty small indeed.

Ah, OK.

You might add antivirus software to check your emails before you send them out to your friends, and add that you did this in your signature.

I just don't have much time for play these days. When I do have time, I don't mind wasting a demon or two on Mars :)
