linux?


Im sure that most of you have come across the free operating system Linux. there are many variants of this UNIX like os. there is ubuntu (which is one i use) mint, debian, and redhat. Unlike Windows and OSX *osx is also based on UNIX. linux is completly free and rather easy to install. Linux has become very popular in the last couple of years becuse of the tragedy of windows vista. of couse you have to pay for windows but if you need a no frills way to get things done then go with any version of linux. You can even install it side by side with your current OS just partition your hard drive, download the iso, burn it to a cd, and restart your computer go to the boot menu, boot of the cd follow the on screen instructions and and install.

Would you steal a Car?



Im sure that you have downloaded something off the internet. Also im sure that it was illegal like music (mp3's) or a movie like the newest release. I really dont see the big deal. Becuse if you are a musician you should be in the industry for the music (but money helps pay the bills) More than likely if you downloaded some mp3's and you liked it, you are probally going to go to a concert or buy some merchindise like t-shirts or keychins. Also if you are like me you like to have a actually physical copy of the music which makes the illegal download pretty much legal. now with movies thats not a could be diffrent  becuse it usally takes thosands of dollars to make and they need to make a profit. but of course it is up to you do make this decision for your self. (Oh and if i could download a car i would, im sure you would to)
