I have lived through 108/158 things

ETA: Of course, there are only 155 things listed, but the rules say to put 158. And counting is good.

( too many things )

For my local Linux-oriented friends

Got a deep meaningful email today from my good friends at IBM:

Navigate the future

Explore plans from IBM, Intel and Red Hat


Dear developer,

The future of Linux is upon us and it's time to take advantage of its many features. Attend "Linux: Navigating the future with IBM, Intel and Red Hat", a technical briefing on March 21, 2006 in Boston. Hear from IBM, Intel and Red Hat about their plans, products and perceptions deploying open technologies to give you more choice, flexibility and security.

It goes on. To see the whole letter, which I am terribly distressed to discover was not truly personal, go here: http://ibm.com/developerworks/ecma/campaign/er.jsp?id=138930

Enjoy!
