Internet Speed: Isn't this nice?
In Sri Lanka, I used to connect to Internet using dial-up connection before ADSL came in. Then I felt "wow! ADSL is fast". But today here in IU, I would say "WOW! what a speed". See the picture below to see why I say this.
Windows7: Desktop Icons: CTRL + Wheel
I wanted to change the size of the icons in Windows7 desktop as they were bit larger than I like. The solution was a simple one, though I had to do some Googling to find it out.Just scroll the mouse wheel while pressing CTRL key. That's easy :). In fact, it can be used in many other places like in windows explorer to change the way how items are showed.
Windows7 and Ubuntu 9.10
I just wiped out my Dell Insipiron E1505 notebook and installed Windows7 Professional and Ubuntu 9.10. I had enough of the Windows XP Media Center Edition. I thought of moving to Ubuntu 9.10 as well, just feel the fun.Unlike in the previous experience with Windows, the Windows 7 performs really well. Regarding Ubuntu, it's better than 9.04 (I was happy with 9.04 as well). The only funny thing is that I had to find drivers and manually install my ATI Raedon X1300 VGA for Windows7. Earlier I used to do this for Ubuntu installations :)
For the moment, these two OSs seems to be a great combination if you are planning to get the best of both worlds.
