Computer-based Remarks
- Does it appear to anyone else that we are rapidly approaching the point at which Apple will have solved all the problems of home computing in their final form?
- If I wanted to finally go through with installing Linux on my laptop here, is there any practical way to do so given that the CD-ROM doesn't work? Like could I put all the files on one of my roommate's computers and make an install floppy that could find the files via Samba? Or would I have to set up one of their computers as an FTP server? Should I leave you guys alone and check out Linux HOWTO shit?
- If I can just make an install floppy -- does anyone have a floppy disk I could use?
UPDATE: Windows ME sucks. I wish my computer had just come with 98 instead. Either that, or I wish that my CD-ROM drive would work. Or I wish that one of my roommates had a floppy disk.
