A Personal Computer does not imply that it is windows. The operating system in fact has no bearing over whether it is a personal computer or not. As long as the computer has an operating system it is a pc. So in a Pc vs Mac add it makes no sense that they depict pc as a windows computer. However this may be the gross mass of personal computers it is by no means the correct terminology and really angers me. If you say I have a pc people instantly assoicate you with windows computers.

I have been working on my websites for a while now and I am trying to find a way of implementing something like chris has here somewhat modified for my own site. It won't be as much a community of geeks as a place for linux newbies to hang out and learn about linux. Anyway its really killing me I need to find out what Chris used to make this site :P

Choose a theme thats fairly plain, then click on the advanced tab and put in something like this:
body {
/*########################## DEJAI's CSS MOD ####################################################*/
background-position: center top;
background-attachment: fixed;

Gta4 is not a 10/10 it has some great features but it also lacks in many areas:
1. You can't buy a wide variety of clothes. (There are only a 4 hats in the game and 2 glasses)
2. You can't buy real estate.
3. No bikes, skateboards.
4. No haircuts.
5. No gym.
6. No planes.
7. You can't buy businesses.
8. From what I can tell you can't drive the cab as a job.
9. The AI is very dumb with the cover system.
10. The storyline is follows the same general gta formula.
11. The friend system is awesome, b…

I got steam to work under linux. If you head over to winehq.org you will see that steam is a gold listed application and was really easy to install. It was simply a matter of downloading it, the latest version of wine and then the command:
wine start steam.msi (or something like that).

I used the wine (the program that is) and a few commands in terminal to configure the program to work on my version of Ubuntu 8.04 but this should work for most Debian based distributions and for fedora people just change sudo apt-get install to su -c"yum install" and it will work.
Ok now lets get into it, first of lets open a terminal. Don't be afraid its nothing scary and I will explain each step in detail. For gnome users…

What is this big rave about Linux? The desktop environments can't look better than Mac can they? Windows is more stable isn't it? The answer to these questions will be answered in the following discussion.

I just made a new Fedora channel it was really easy to set up the software seems to be working great. If anyone is looking to use a distribution of linux check out the group and sign up. If you a linux addict or a fedora community member or just want to have a good chat with other fedora members check out the channel. Anyway that's all for now.
