What a great topic. There are many good reasons for switching from windows to linux. At first making the choice of what distro is good for you is complicated but after that if a person is willing to read and has the disire to learn anything is possible... I collect software so pretty much you name it and I have it, that started as a hobby 10 years ago. Thanks to the people that participate on the Hak.5 forums it makes this thing of ours very enjoyable. Keep up the good work...

Everytime I see IBM in a story I cant help remembering that the nazis used IBM punch card PC's to manage the concentration camps. They had developed a program that calculated the effeciency of the jewish prisoners and the resulting number was tattooed on the prisoners body, usually on the arm. It has been reported and documented that IBM founder Thomas Watson dealt directly with Adolph Hitler and that he had full knowledge of what the machines were being used for. Here is the web address to a very interesting read. http://www.ibmandtheholocaust.com/reviews.php Always remember that if we are to forget the horrors of our past we run the risk of repeating them... I love computers and technology in general and would like to see the future in a more positive light but everytime I see IBM it brings back memories of me seeing the crude ink tattoos on my grandparents arms and the sadness in there eyes... Anyway just a quick dose of reality, I hope that you will forgive me... Peace and Love and Technolust...
