Including what I could get of the Beryl Window system to work. Now normally it gives you a six-face cube for a desktop, which you can rotate, but I never got it to do anything consistent for me.

Still, I could browse the web, download from ALT.BINARIES.SLACK, play MP3 and MOV files, logon, logoff, and empty the trash successfully. Which is about all the average SubG ever needs to do besides pee and whank and drop stool, all of which are better done offline anyhow.

So what am I complaining about, the price was right, all FREE FREE FREE. And compared to Windows, which has been very good to me, Linux is worth EVERYTHING I PAID FOR IT. With Windows, at least I could POST my own binaries, play MIDI files, and use my webcam. Well, by the time my PRIME system here becomes the old shoe, in that glorious future perhaps UBUNTU will be sufficiently well developed to satisfy me completely, and I can slap a Linux on it before I turn it over to the glue factory.

Viddy this, me droogies:
