Since I got my new, relatively large 120gb HDD, I’ve been playing around with different Linux distros. I decided to give openSUSE 10.2 a try.

I downloaded the 3.61 GB ISO. I used VirtualBox to install it inside Windows XP. After install, it asks if I want to download updates. I think, “Sure! Why not?”

Well, I “select all.” Download size? ~2.5GB. Wow, thanks, at 300kbs, that’ll only take 3-4 more hours until I can use my OS. What a great idea! That and I only allocated 6 GB to the OS in VirtualBox. I don’t have 2.5GB left.

This after my latest Fedora 7 debacle…

Update 

Wireless not detected. Sound not detected. At least F7 did that. Bye, SUSE. Until next time…

I was listing to Jason Lewis the other day. (KTLK FM)

I quote:

“If you’re the victim of a murder, it won’t matter to you that crime is down.”

It’s one of those quotes that, if taken out of context, seems like a “duh” or kinda oddly funny. He was talking about why he talks about the “bad news” when there is so much “good news:” because a little bad news can ruin a lot of good news.

Good point, J.

I was IMing my sister. Crazy enough since she’s one room over, about 20 feet away.

What’s even worse? She says “brb” and I hear her leave her room. A few minute later, she walks back into her room and says “I’m back.”

Like I didn’t notice, sister…
