About this site
In case you are wondering, this is my
techie page where I will plaster lots of links that I seem to think are good and useful and
will also blab about various encounters that I have with computers.
I resently installed SUSE 10 on my machine and I so far I really like it. Previously I was running Fedora Core 3, before that several versions of RedHat and before that I started out with Debian. I liked using Debian, but after trying RedHat I found it much easier to use for a Linux newbie. And then of course the RedHat workstation was turned over to the Fedora group, so that was the obvious progression.
The main reason I have switched to SUSE has to do with the parent company Novell. I come from a company that runs on a Novell network and uses Groupwise for email. Novell has made the native clients available for SUSE, allowing me to finally get away from Windows. At work I run SUSE 9.3 Prof. and use VMWare to bootup a snapshot of Windows when I have to use it. VMWare is another very cool tool. I can't wait to setup a Novell and Solaris snapshot. I would really like to run a snapshot of AIX, but that isn't supported as yet, too bad.
