Here’s a list of 100 popular opensource applications. From audio editing to 3d graphics, there’s an application out there for everyone. The list comes in handy for those new to Linux.

The recent “KL Freeze In Unison” which had over 1000 individuals contribute by freezing themselfs for 5 mins at “The Pavilion” and “Lot 10” was a total success. Good news, the Freeze is back and it’s hitting “Sunway Piramid” Sunday April 20. This time for the World Earth Day. Hopefully I’ll get to join this time. Here are the rules; Synchronise your watches at 24timezones Be at Sunway Pyramid well before 8pm. Go about minding your own business. Most people would be congregated at the concourse or designated main area so spread yourselves out for maximum impact. Sharp at 8pm - FREEZE!!! (Be creative with your poses, you’ll be viewing them on Youtube for ages to come) When it’s time to UN-FREEZE, if you feel like cheering for a Freeze well done by all means go ahead.

The attached manual stated that when the new card was switched out with the old card while viewing a program a dialog box would pop up notifying me of the upgrade. That didn’t quite happen....
