POPSProgramming Cheat Sheet Round-up. I use the term programming very very loosely. I clipped the topic headings, visit the source for the links to the cheat sheets, each topic has quite a few cheat sheets. Very useful.

POPSThe Year 2038 Problem Part I I have this to say:: Roger M. Wilcox has a thorough knowledge base and is very funny. Following my enjoyment of his "That Wacky Century" and "That Wacky Millennium," I had to check out the man's homepage and he is quite diversified. This immediately caught my attention and though the Y2K bug was not so bad, this could actually be a severe problem as many more businesses use Unix than the 8088 architecture. It is the main portal between integrating PC and Mac on the same network and this is a matter that can cause huge foul-ups, but at least he gave us 35 years notice and I am passing along 30 years of that!

POPSDebian Operating Systems The latest release Debian 4.0r3 Etch (4.0 revision 3) was released on Feb 17. It contains a base system CD and 3 DVDs containing 18,000 free programs in 'Debian Packages' The programs in these packages can easily be installed and removed with the debian package manager. There are regular updates so packages can automatically be replaced with newer versions. When I started, the whole idea of a new operating system seemed hard to fathom, but it occurred to me that when I started with windows, I was at least as blind. The idea of having a wide range of programs at my fingertips, with the ability to try them and remove them with no catches if they were not what I wanted, was enough to make me switch, and I've been amazed at what I have found, generally developed and tested by people who wanted to contribute to an improvement. Now I have the ability to control the core of my system, and it's great motivation to learn about how a program really works.

POPSUnix-Tutorials.com When I started with Linux I was frustrated as there were no place where you could find most of the tutorials and howtos. So now a lot of time has passed and I decided to make life easier for guys like I used to be who’re just starting with UNIX based operating systems.
