Articles from I Don't Do Windows

ComputorEdgehas been gracious enough to give me and my interest in Linux some space in their magazine. Over the months--and hopefully longer by the time you read this--my articles have accumulated to be a rather regular part of the magazine. Hopefully, they can be a help for anyone new to Linux. They are listed for your benefit below, along with the date of the issue they appeared in.

Please feel free to search for stuff in my articles here. Note: This script doesn't work. I've disabled it and will replace it when I can get around to it... :-)

Meanwhile, you can simply click here and browse the directory of articles yourself. Find whatever seems interesting to you.

These files are html files, so you can browse them to your heart's content. I also have LaTeX and plain text versions of nearly each of these files, so e-mail me if you would like a copy. Please include a subject of "CompEdge Article Request" and my mail handler will filter your request to give you quicker service. Since I get so much mail from mailing lists, I'm apt to absent mindedly delete your mail along with other e-mails that don't apply to my needs or interests of the moment.

I also have some other articles I've done that may be appearing in the near future. Here they are.
