  1. For more desktop space... on Fast Alpha-Blending In Your GUI · · Score: 1

    Just get a program like MultiDesk. It gives you a very nice way of having multiple desktops. You can easily switch between them. Additionally, it easily lets one sort out their windows. One desktop for email, one for web, one for word. All easily switchable at the touch of a button.

  2. Wow! This game rocks! on Sir-tech Canada Releases Wizardry 8 · · Score: 1

    Anyone who likes CRPGs should play this game. I got into the Wizardry series with Wizardry 6 (I wasn't old enough to sit at a computer for the previous Wizardry games). These games have amazing character development and a great story line. The graphics in 8 are stunning. It's not Unreal or Quake, but it's better then any other CRPG out there right now. And also remember, that this game was ready to come out a year ago but the lack of a publisher stymied it's release.

    Here's to a great job by Sir-Tech! Thanks for all the games over the years! You will be missed!

  3. Re:more office suites? on Looking At Gobe · · Score: 1

    To be absolutely truthful, at the moment the best word processor on Linux seems to be a combination of a browser and a text editor (write it in html, and then look, to make sure you got it right), but this isn't very appropriate for printed output.

    To be absolutely truthful, at the moment and for many moments that have gone by and many more in the future, the best word processor on Linux is TeX!!! It is an amazingly powerful tool for creating printed output. There's a learning curve, but the output is great!

  4. Thank god for TiVo... on U.S. Logo-Free TV Broadcast Organizations? · · Score: 1

    30 minute shows, with 10 minutes of commericials are just 20 minute shows.

    Go DVRs!
