Two new stuff...

...came by mail!!!



The first is the Ubuntu Desktop Live CD. I ordered this since I wanted to tinker with Linux and maybe, just maybe, learn more about working on it. Till now, I have tinkered with the Live CD only, but have plans of installing it on my computer alongside Windows. However, since my family members also use this computer, I guess they might not like the idea of a window asking them to select which OS to use when they start up the computer. Also, I am not sure whether my existing Internet connection will work with Ubuntu installed.

Put simply, all this means that I have not yet decided anything!!

The next one is the book, "My Job Went To India (And All I Got Was This Lousy Book!)" by Chad Fowler. I had heard of this book and wanted to know what was inside it. Of course, the book is targeted at Americans, but I bought it on the notion that there could be some tips that might be helpful to me too!! Will read the book and let you know!!
