Un-Mac'n It

As quickly as it came, it was gone. Over the last few weeks, as reflected in my last post, I have been rethinking my decision to buy a Mac. I have come to the conclusion that it's just not for me. As much as I liked OS X and the Mac Mini, it wasn't Linux and it wasn't really what I wanted in a secondary computer. I wanted to get back into OSS and I wanted a laptop. So last week I put my mini up for auction on eBay. If you want it, you better hurry, it ends tonight.

What will take its place you ask? An IBM Thinkpad T22 (900MHz, 512MB). :-D It's not the best, and it's not super fast, but it does what I need it to. I think its the perfect laptop. Not too slow, but not too new, so I can do what I need to and everything works. It's running Gentoo, and on it I am writing this post. I've pretty much got it all setup, just installing a final few packages.
