Ubuntu……..

Wednesday, November 22nd, 2006

It’s been a while since I have posted any entries on my blog…off late I have been very busy with work and personal life….lot of things to do and to be done. One recent achievement that I am proud of is in my successful migration to Linux. Well…I can’t say I am complete Linux convert, I have a dual boot setup with Windows XP. I need windows for my .NET stuff, but one day I am hoping I can use Mono.

As the title of this post suggests, I am using Ubuntu …Yes !!!!!….the same thing aka Linux for Humans :) . I started using Ubuntu Draper Drake and then upgraded to the new Edgy (Ubuntu 6.10) release. I will write more about how I have done it all in a day or two. Time to get back to some work….
