Announcing the Official openSUSE Forums

By

In order to provide a better service to the existing openSUSE Community and to our new users, we’re pleased to announce that suseforums.net, suselinuxsupport.de and the openSUSE support forums at forums.novell.com (the three largest English speaking dedicated SUSE forums) are joining forces to merge into the new official openSUSE Forums at forums.opensuse.org. Behind the scenes, a project team consisting of Novell employees, openSUSE Community members, and existing forums’ staff have been working on this project since the beginning of 2008. The new infrastructure will be hosted by Novell to ensure the highest possible quality of service.
Current plans are to migrate the existing active members of suseforums.net and suselinuxsupport.de into the official openSUSE Forums, simultaneously implementing Single Sign On for the whole openSUSE Community. We hope to make the transition as seamless as possible, and will go live Spring 2008. More information will be posted as available.
All in all, a big gain for the whole openSUSE Community!

Microsoft's Internet Explorer 8 chasing Apple's Safari

By

I just couldn’t resist this one:
Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 8 chasing Apple’s Safari
You Apple fanboys need to get a grip on reality. They never miss a chance to try and trumpet their supposed superiority. If you look here you’ll see that Safari has a 1.9% share of the browser market and 4.4% of the OS market. That means that even Mac users prefer using Firefox over Safari. It’s just a freakin’ browser guys.
Anyway, if you want to check out MS’s new IE 8 Beta hop on over P.T.’s site for screenshots and here for download links.
I’m gonna pass on this one as I’m already doing Beta testing for MS, I’m using Windows Vista. 😉

I’ve been doing a little more research and would love some more feedback on If you built or bought a computer right now….
For you high-enders Asustek has released the Z7S WS workstation motherboard. Sweet mobo but it’s way more than I need.

Sad to see Brett Favre retire.
