Windows-friendly desktop Linux launches

-
"The latest version of Xandros desktop Linux has arrived, continuing the operating system's mission to welcome Windows users--a mission that's led some in the Linux community to dismiss it as 'Linux with training wheels.' " - from ZDnet.

looks like the OS war is slowly evolving. news on Gates stepping down, news on Mac using Intel (hmm, will they use this Linux in the next 5 to 10 years?), news on Google's Spreadsheet (Free!), news on free broadband access in Singapore, what could be next?

Linux is definitely not a FAD. who knows, we might not have a hard disk in all our computers next time, some company might host them since internet bandwidth is able to handle huge traffic load and speed.

so guys/gals pick up at least the basic skills of Linux and computing, don't be left behind when the time comes, remember the internet era?

Autobiography: My Mum

may 11, 2003... a day that i remembered.. we were celebrating mothers' day with mum, dad and my siblings (usual like any others)... it is the last family celebration with my mum. (not sure why i remembered this day, probably my birthday which was the following day). mum told us that she was going to see specialist at Alexandra Hospital the following week... i always felt closer to her than my siblings since young. i could sense that she always took special care of me... maybe i was the one that was always sick (suffering asthma attacks), getting most sprains, most cuts and most playful... the weakest in health. ---- during primary 3, i recalled that i was hospitalised (almost dead) because of asthma attacks. she would stay with me through the few nights, taking intense care of me. she would piggy-back me around. ---- although she would nag, shout and scold, and at times, i find her annoying... i really miss her voice now. Aug 12, 2003 around 3am, my wife and i woke up together... i
