This that and 'tother
Oct. 29th, 2005 12:08 pmWell, I've now posted my entries for the current ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tardis_icons challenge (#20). I learned my lesson from the previous times: this time I only made as many icons as I could enter, so I didn't have to angst about which ones to choose. I am quite pleased with all of them! Especially the last one, I really like it. That one is going to have a full-size version in my gallery as soon as the challenge is over.
Investigations of laptops is continuing. (My father said he'd buy me one for my birthday, see) My primary requirements are (a) must run Linux well (b) must be not too big or too small, so as to work well both portably and generally. Right now, the two leading contenders are:
1) get a ThinkPad from http://www.vgcomputing.com.au/ because they will give you Linux pre-installed, and what is more, one of the distros they offer is GenToo (which is my current distro)
2) get a Mac; an iBook or a PowerBook, I'm not sure which.
There are pros and cons for both, but they both have these very attractive advantages: (a) very good reliable hardware (b) less hassle!
