Snow and Linux

Based on some conversations at work today (not to mention LinuxWorld) I was inspired to (once again) install Linux on my PC at home. I’ve been on the edge of doing so for awhile now, and I’ve been itching to do some non-work coding, so I figured I would take some time tonight and get things rolling. I am installing Gentoo 2004.3 from the ground up (Stage 1), so it’s slow going even on my crazy, balls-out, PC. But I like Gentoo, especially since their package management retains the spirit of BSD Ports. Even said she was excited to check out Linux since she’s never used it, although we’ll see how much she likes it, as she seems resistant to UI change. :P

Looking out the window tonight I realize that I really love the winter.
