Long time to since my last post.
Sorry for no posts, I had a exam revision a few weeks ago. When I was about to post a new article, the server went down. When it came back online, I was on holiday. But I am back now, so the posts will be coming “thick & fast”

Sorry for the lateness of “Linux Wednesday”, been busy with school work and the release of Gfire 0.7.0 (its now out, gfire.edhewitt.co.uk). This week, I am going to do my review on the latest version of Ubuntu, 8.04 Hardy Heron. This release is meant to be the most substantial release of Ubuntu ever, plus it [...]

For a few weeks now, Microsoft have been talking about their take on the disc format war. Before they lost the war, I believe HD-DVD was going to win, primarily down to them being able to block the use of Blu-Ray of 90% of PCs. However, as we all know, Blu-Ray won.
