New Free Open Source Enterprise Magazine
An anonymous reader writes "A new free Open Source Enterprise magazine was launched today. The publication was built entirely with Open Source tools, including the GIMP, Scribus and Open Office. It is distributed in PDF format, and focuses on Open Source Solutions related to Enterprise Data Networking. The first issue looks at some interesting stuff include MultiLayer Switching in Linux. A torrent is also available."
someone was willing to take it upon themselves to work their asses off in their free time and get the best content from developers, users, etc... and were to try and create a physical add supported magazine would you subscribe?
We seldom regret saying too little but often regret saying too much.
A laptop is too awkward for casual reading of PDFs.
I've found that a laptop can work quite well for magazine/ebook style PDFs. Rotate the page 90 degrees and set the page to full screen. On my iBook I use Acrobat when I decide to do this. Rotate it clockwise (cmd-shift-+), hit cmd-L for full screen and flip the thing so the power cord is sticking out of the top. My thumb is resting right near the button to flip the page. If I need to go back a page I just reach up and press the left arrow. If you're going to be doing any extended reading, you may want to set the background color to a light cream color (it's in the accessability options). I realize this is purely a matter of taste, but like I said, I've found it comfortable enough to read through a few PDF ebooks this way...
Be a real patriot: Question authority. Think for yourself. Formulate your own conclusions.
