Hi Tyler, Well, the best way to know if your HP works with Linux is to grab the Ubuntu 8.04 cd and boot into live mode. Live mode allows you to run a minimal Linux os off the cd which allows yyou to test the os with your hardware, recover files, and so on. Obviously, it runs much slower in live

Hi Shaun, The thing is I had the 60 day trial of MS Office 2007, and I personally thought it sucked. I can't stand the new menu strip thing they added to replace the standard menu bar. Not only that MS has been adding a lot of junk to Office for the last 10 years like the not so friendly Office

Hmm. It's too bad Macs don't have a mud client that reads automaticly yet. Then again, I guess Linux is the better OS here again in terms of the screen reader because it's been worked on even before VoiceOver even existed. I do suppose with each OS release VO is getting better but I think it'll

I am so fed up. All I want to do is use fs2002, FSNavigator, FSUIPC and PMSounds, but FSUIPC refuses to interface with PMSounds even though it is fully registered. Project magenta don't seem to know why. While I'm on the subject of FS2002 can someone please tell me how to take off? Lindsay

Hi Josh, Gnome 2.20 and Orca 2.20 ship with Ubuntu 8.04 out of the box. There is no need to grab Gnome independantly. In fact, if you want to try Linux before installing it Ubuntu8.04 comes on a bootible cd which you place in your cd drive, reboot your system, and if you press enter on the

A 695mb download. I got it to work, kind of. But I don't think my copy of it is working like it's supposed to. My installation got messed up, for example. But, then again, I installed it on an old hard drive for which the bios in that compac pops up a screen occasionally after I hit the power
