Hello Hazel

Welcome to the mailing list :)

To be honest i prefer ubuntu, I do have a copy of opensuse 10.1 which i 
installed the other day, but it was pretty slow [then again it was on a 
crappy machine]

A stuffed knitted TUX, what a kewl idea :)

Did you also know NottsLUG has a planet? An aggregation of a number of 
members blogs?  Take a look, and if you would like to have a blog added, 
just let me know :)

Cheers
Paul
