Oh, yeah, I'm in Atlanta, GA.  While I feel that Alabama jokes are
not in such horrible taste, and there's probably not so many
Alabama-Linux users, this joke, however funny it may be, is a bit
stereotypical, if not disrespectful.  Funny none-the-less, however.

L-M content:
Just bumped up my RAM to 64MB's.  Proccessor still at 133, graphics @
2MB's.  Playing around w/ different window mgrs.  KDE still very
user friendly.  Gnome/Enlightenment a bit harder to figure out. 
STILL LOVIN' LINUX!!!
