Et tu, Intel?

Ouch! Intel gave Vista the Cold shoulder. I've been saying this since for a long time. Intel doesn't want Windows Vista Either.

Linux at the Office

Well my experience/experiment using Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 at the office is complete. It's got potential and it's really cool but I simply can't make use of it because too much of what I need to get my job done is proprietary. The Majority of which is AutoCAD & Adobe specific but the office apps worked fantastic and just like at home I prefer the Compile Fusion Cube/Desktop while using my office apps to my dual monitors in windows. But at least I finally did get my dual Monitors to work with Ubuntu. Wow that was a pain in the ass, I finally found the X-Server download to get it working correctly.

Getting the networks to work was simple and easy as was printing but the ghost-script drivers are only black and white. Except for the big plotter which is key for the job. There is a driver for the HP 500 series plotter but it doesn't work, just hangs, I couldn't get even get a test page out.

I found this Youtube vid. Really hits home to my own political beliefs. It's called "America is Tyranny" and he's right.
