  2. Whew! Well today I was sitting around thinking about this and that and decided that I wanted to give linux another shot. After much conversation with Pierce, I decided to download and install Debian. Well, somewhere during the installation it asked what kind of environment I wanted to install.

  14. Well, I finally gave my presentation. It went very well. While I wasn't able to get all my questions answered, I did have a very good discussion with the class on the various subjects we discussed. I'm guessing it went alright as when I was done, 3 people came up and told me how impressed they were .
