Another great first time contributor

Thank you, Slurry. This episode was awesome. I found myself smiling throughout the whole thing. Your delivery was first rate. Either you nailed this in one take, or you are a pro at editing, and you have to do an episode to tell us how to edit as well as you did.

It's great to hear another "geek" helping out at church, too.

I couldn't agree more about how Linux makes me feel when using it, especially compared to windows. I also love knowing that I can share that feeling with anyone who's interested. You said that you were amazed by your first live CD. How about the first time you saw gparted do a non-destructive partition edit, or heard that ext3 didn't need to be defragmented?

I LOVE that you popped the CD drive open with a pen to avoid ever booting windows. If I ever buy a new laptop, I'm doing exactly that.

If you decide to do more shows, I'd love to hear how you taught yourself python. Learning python is on my long list.

Thanks for a fantastic show.

Bluhing

Blushing a bit from pokey's comments. This was done in one take with some minor editing. Thanks for the episode suggestion on editing. I'm an amateur at it, but I'd be glad to share what seemed to work for me.

Thanks for the kind words pokey.

The Power of Linux

I am really proud of how the fast the Linux community is growing. I have a friend with a similar story as yours. The only difference is I suggested Linux as an alternative for her and she uses it primarily. I love this episode and your willingness to try Linux. I'm going to play this episode again for others.

I was looking at your response to lostnbronx's show # 721. If you write an AD, and you really do want HPR folks to read... I'm in if you want me.
