Linux Antique
I have mentioned several times that my acquaintance with Linux started somewhere in the XX century, long before it became a part of our everyday life. It was in a form of Linux distribution downloaded from the Internet, and in a form of CD I bought from a stall on one of the markets in Moscow.
I have recently found the CD I bought that time.
Let me introduce you to Linux Antique, aka Red Hat 5.2 KDE.
I hope you like the Linux history.

DarkDuck wishes you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Hello to all my readers!
Year 2014 has almost gone. It was difficult for many of us. It was full of pleasures for many of us too.
It was turbulent and difficult for myself. There were many changes in my personal life, in my work, in my location. But I cannot say that there were no nice moment. They were.
Let's leave all bad memories in 2014, and let's hope for good times in 2015!
I wish you all the best in the coming year!
Stay tuned to Linux notes from DarkDuck.

Zorin: That is Flexibility!
I will start off by saying that I am a 67 year old retired male who is only moderately computer savvy.
I started out using Linux with the Mandrake version about 8 years ago as an experiment. I was upset with Windows 95 & 98 because it would continuously freeze up and eventually would ruin the hard drive. Not to mention the virus problems.
I tried Lindows for a while because I liked their repository and the ease at which one could download and install programs. After a few years Lindows which had changed its name to Linspire was discontinued so I switched to Ubuntu with the KDE GUI desktop.
About 2 years ago I tried Zorin 6.0 and have used it and upgraded it on one of my computers since. I especially like the Zorin OS desktop experience because I can change it to look like Windows 7 or like Mac. That is flexibility! I also enjoy the Ubuntu type repository system!
I feel that anyone who has never tried Linux and wants to convert over to Linux from Windows should try a Linux system that is most like Windows - that would be Zorin.
This is a guest post by Harry S. Durham, which took part in the joint Zorin OS contest.
