more fun with linux
I did some cleanup of my own hard drive yesterday, backed up everything important, and installed SuSE. and you know what? I think I like it.

I did some cleanup of my own hard drive yesterday, backed up everything important, and installed SuSE. and you know what? I think I like it. I still don’t really understand how to install software properly, but despite that I’ve gotten jEdit and Firefox running already. (didn’t care much for Konqueror as a browser; I have too much invested in my finger-memory of Firefox/Mozilla shortcuts, etc.)
which is the same reason why I wish HTML-Kit were available for more than Windows…hmmm, maybe I should figure out an emulator — or I’d be happy to hear suggestions for text editors that are good for (X)HTML and PHP at the minimum.
there’s some other things I want to fuss with (I need to install Open Office), but I think I’m going to switch to this as my main operating system. after all, my needs are pretty simple:
* browser
* text editor
* wordprocessor/spreadsheet
* FTP client
* music player (I’m really enjoying xmms, btw)
* image editor
and that’s pretty much it. I’ll switch back to my Windows install probably for Photoshop and SimCity 4, but everything else I can do here quite happily, I think.
(this means that I’ll *never* upgrade to Win XP.)
