Mine's on it's way....

Two major linux releases came out last week, and we have them both available for burning;

After two years of development, Debian (the base of many fine distributions) released version 4.0, known as "Etch". The release was accompanied by a handful if new install disks, including the uber-potent multi-architecture net-installer.

In mid February Dell in the United States opened a new sight called Dell Idea Storm http://www.dellideastorm.com/ The plan was to find out what new and innovative things the public wanted from this giant in the computer sales industry. It should have been simple.

Did you see a giant penguin at Yonge and Dundas Square ?
Did a fresh-faced young geek give you a CD ?

Then you have just taken part in Operation Cold Comfort; a promotional effort by Ubuntu Canada, designed to co-incide with the launch of Microsoft Vista (tm) and to tell as many people as possible about this great free alternative.

Wonderful guitar maker, delightful Dad and general creative genius, Mark Kett, has given the caffe (well.. me.. actually) an incredibly awesome gift; the linuxcaffe Kettar. (a Kettar is a musical instrument shaped a lot like a guitar, but with other magical qualities infused by it's maker)

This instrument was many years in the making, and has undergone several physical and karmic conversions. It is made of Brazilian rosewood and Myrtle, and is emblazoned with a fiery fusion of the Ubuntu Canada symbol, a modest "linuxcaffe" mark, and seems to be able to absorb the love, hope and inspiration of all who hold it. (ok.. that's what I tell myself, anyways) It will be kept out in the open, ready for sharing, and I hope you'll visit soon and hear (or make) it's brilliant mellow tones ring out. I know it has magic properties, because the moment I picked it up, I could instantly play 1.618 times better !

Where can you go to get a semi-private tutorial about the world’s fastest growing Linux distribution, and buy a descent cup of coffee at the same time. The only place I know is the Linux Caffe, the focal point for the Linux community in Toronto.

Dave Sullivan, Consultant with Lophyte Technology Consulting delivered a solid presentation on Dapper Drake Ubuntu 6.06 .The knowledge base of the participants ranged for the well experienced to one person who had installed Ubuntu the day before. Dave wasn’t phased when answering the technical questions from the Linux veterans and the more general questions with the Ubuntu newbies. I left the seminar wanting to get home quickly to apply what I had learned.

Here I am. a few years away from retirement, when most people are thinking vacation property and time shares in sunny places and I am taking on the Linux experience.

I tell people that it is like standing on an iceburg. It's big, impressive and perhaps a little scary, but the scary part is knowing that I can only see the part above the waterline. There is so much more about Linux that I just don't know anything about, yet.
