Happy New Year!

The year 2007 marks the end of many things for me including bachelorhood… and MS Windows.

Married life has been great and Amy and I are awaiting the arrival of Tyler in coming weeks!

As for operating systems, after 2 years of booting predominately to Windows on my dual-boot work laptop, I have declared war. I received a (sick!) new laptop for work during the EOY Holiday week. I immediately formatted the drive, installed Ubuntu on a 100Gb primary partition and windows on the 2nd-ary 20Gb. Why windows at all? Well…. just in case. My job depends on a number of independent factors and having a tiny, tiny, very small partition dedicated was enough for security sake. Also, web meeting tools like GoToMeeting don’t have ports to linux (yet) so I need a channel for remote meetings. Only a minor annoyance though.

Linux forever!
