At lunch time I was sitting in a chinese cafe getting outside of a bowl of combination noodles when a guy noticed that I was booting my Asus EEE aka Formby with xubuntu. He smiled, said it was good to see someone not using the default Debian distro and suggested that I have a go at Crunchbang linux. But it won't load... gonna try to tweak the sucker.

Looks like Crunchbang came through. Downloading updates. Hooking up to the wireless network was easier than on the xubuntu distro I had on before. I love new OSes. You can get into such a rut sticking with Microsoftcock software. Stretching the mental muscles with a computer is a lot of fun.
