Konqueror and KMail for a Month
Submitted by Jon Du Quesne on Mon, 12/04/2006 - 02:44.I have used Firefox and Thunderbird for many years now. I like both of them a lot. However, I have decided to learn a bit more about two of the big components of the KDE Desktop Environment: Konqueror and KMail. I have decided to spend at least a month using both of them.

Old and New (Gnu?)
Submitted by Jon Du Quesne on Fri, 10/13/2006 - 00:31.One thing I like about Linux is the ability to connect the old with the new.
As I indicated in my Bio, many of my early interests were of all things nautical and medical. When I was a young boy I taught myself how to tie many complex knots using the best "knot books" of the time (Ashley's Book of Knots and The Encyclopaedia of Knots and Fancy Ropework by Raoul Graumont and John Hensel). I also kept my mind busy by learning all I could about medicine and anatomy. Not bad for a kid in the sixth grade!
