Screenshots page

I’m working on a page where you can see my screenshots. It will be kind of like this news page, but with screenshots instead of news. Stay tuned for more!

Work

I’ve been at work today — nine hours straight. Computers are fun to play with, but when you have been putting them together for nine hours, they tend to get a little irritating :-)

A fine screenshot

I’ve taken a screenshot showing off efm. You can see the very cool transparent menus efm makes — they makes it easy to navigate to the folder or file you need. I’ve also magnified an icon, so you can see the beautiful alpha-blended icons we have here in efm!

The full image 400 Kb in size, so beware, if you sit behind a small line.

Too much news…

My news-system is working beautifully! But I’ll soon have to hack it, so it only displays the most recent news. And I have the time now, that I’ve had my last day in school.

Another Windows-user converted (yeah! :-)

Today, my father finally gave up his resistance, and we installed Redhat 6.2 on part of his harddisk. He had got some extra room on the disk, after we upgraded the machine, because Windows 2000 suddenly wouldn’t boot.

It was also about time, my father tried Linux — now I’ve run Linux af my primary OS for over a year, and I’m not thinking of going back to Windows. But based on his reacktiosn, after his first attemps to do simple things, like mounting the windows partition, I’m not sure, that he will throw the Windows partition away just now.

If Corel and Borland can come up with a good distribution and some good development tool, respectively, then I’m sure my father will switch to Linux — together with many others.
