My workplace looks like this at the moment:
I have a desktop PC running Ubuntu Linux. On that machine, I have a Windows XP virtual machine (to be seen on the 30-inch monitor) and on the very right, there’s my Mac. Hmm. I’m seriously working with 3 OSes at the same time 😯
I’ve been working on a system running Ubuntu 9.10 and even though I’m still a Mac fanboy, I have to admit that Ubuntu has grown to be a really fast, stable and fun system! But who cares? Computers suck anyway 
Side note: I’ll return to Germany for the holidays, fuel up on relaxation and will be back here in England on January 5th. Merry Christmas to you all and have a great new year 2010!
Phew, not too easy to get this configuration running but in the end I managed (with a little help from my friends) to get it done. For several quite pointless study tasks belonging to our “Operating systems” class, I had to get a pure Linux (most likely Debian) system running on which I’m supposed to work in the crappy KDevelop IDE. I’ll not dive into complaining about that should-be-generic-and-platform-independent course which is in fact nothing more but YALAPC (yet another Linux and programming C++) class… Duh! It’s not like we all heard that stuff already before. At least three times. Well, at least three times more than we heard that Barack Obama was elected president and that carbon dioxide might not be too good for our globe’s health…
Well, whatever. It’s doing what it’s supposed to do and I might have a chance of succeeding in this course 😉 Just in case people ask what I’m dealing with all the time 😀
Ich hatte ja gestern die Freude, vi kennenzulernen. Welcher Freak hat sich den Scheiß ausgedacht? Okay, den Wenn-Du-damit-umgehen-kannst-bist-Du-ends-der-Guru und das-ist-auf-jedem-System-dabei-Faktor mal außen vor gelassen, ist das wohl so ziemlich der unhandlichste Texteditor, mit dem ich je gearbeitet hab! ARGH! Was meint Ihr?
