Is it time to change? I've been using Mepis fro quite some time now, but have been encouraged to try this out. Let's see if I can squeeze in some time for it.

A great distro that makes Linux ready for desktop - PCLinuxOS

All of us have heard ''Linux is ready for desktop" time and over again to the point that users on the Microsoft side of the isle say 'yeah whatever...' . But this time its a dream come true, thanks to PCLinuxOS.

So what makes PCLinuxOS (PCLOS) stand out? To answer that, we need to sidebar a bit and understand the philosophy behind it. The philosophy is, keep it simple, user friendly with a centralized control. Towards that goal, PCLOS has a graphical PCLOS Control Center which makes configuring devices and settings a child's play.

Thank you all for your prayers! We are all down the "home stretch" to health! The kids are all better, and AnG and I are pretty much done with our flu. Just a bit of cough still, but feels like it'll be gone by the weekend!

Thank you Jesus for HEALTH! Feels good to feel good!

The day before yesterday it was dry and about -10 C (15 F). Then it snowed about 6 inches during the night, but by lunch it had warmed up and started to rain in the afternoon, at about 10 C (50 F). Today it's still raining...crazy weather.

We are all sick with colds and coughs....including Angie and I. Only Kay isn't sick. The last two days, Kenny sleeps all morning, and then is fine in the afternoon.
So please pray that our health is restored.

Thanks.
