[SLUG] Domain registrar recommendations
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hey all, This is a quick and easy one (and not entirely Linux related) but here goes. I register domains for my clients and am looking at another registrar with better pricing and a better interface for me to keep all the domains in one place. Who do you all use and recommend? Thankyou in advance.

They're brilliant! Yeah - the presentations are very effective. Since I am kindof working on a very similar sort of thing and have cebit coming up...

[SLUG] Fedoara 8 or Suse 10.3
Hi all, Sorry to bother you again. Would it be better to use Suse 10.3 or Fedora 8 as a distribution to use to study Linux for the LPI exams?
