Apology for delayed response... a continuous rolling update is unlike a
distro update that Fedora and Ubuntu use... Arch says it better at:
http://www.archlinux.org/
I have been delayed since Arch prompted me to get the hard disk on my
new Toshiba Satellite bottom of the line budget laptop better organised,
since the hidden Toshiba petition unsettled cfdisk. So a complete new
clean disk re-install of Ubuntu without any Vista.
More seriously, I am very impressed with the recent Ubuntu Linux and
have no use for Windows Vista. With my new partitions I allowed extra
space on usr/local and can build Arch here, which is my current
intention.
Basically, I am tinkering but with an intention to find some things,
whatever that may be. The free software movement and GNU/Linux also
allows access to the way humans interact with computers which is not
available with MS systems. So, I am interested. It can get to some very
abstract cultural diagrams, like code as the exchange of women, as well.
I am also writing about computers and humans in prose novel form.
anyway, back to tinkering... Chris Jones.
