Here's something about the location of the iTunes library files.
Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

With my new spare computers I have been trying out Linux distributions and keep coming back to Ubuntu although I though Suse was pretty good too. Anyone have strong opinions on Linux distributions?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How's Ubuntu for installing new apps? I admit, I stuck around Red Hat for as long as I did because of the RPMs.

Ubuntu is based on Debian so it installs new apps the Debian way.
If the app you want is the in Ubuntu repository, it's just point and click. If not, then you're kinda on your own. It has a pretty decent repository though.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."
I've had decent luck with Gentoo, although it's been a while since my last clean install and I don't ask it to do too much other than occasional platform testing and holding a cvs repository.
If you're interested in tinkering under the hood, it may be a good distro for you. It's extremely customizable.

Any CSS experts out there who want to help me figure out a problem with a dropdown menu? I've banged my head on the desk one too many times and I've decided to yell for help.

Hey cool. I might have to try Gentoo and/or Slackware just to see what they are like. I can't belive I forgot about Slackware, I used Slackware a lot back in the day when I had a couple of Linux servers on the web.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Of course then there's the whole Xfce vs. KDE vs. GNOME issue. So far I'm liking GNOME the best, but Xfce isn't too bad either. I haven't warmed up to KDE.
