Okay, I should have been in bed a couple hours ago, but I stayed up to try out a new Linux installation.

SuSE 9.3 rocks my socks off. Not only does it support my sound card (a problem I had with other distros), I can even access ALL the files on my Windows partion from here without booting over to the other side! How sweet is that!

I still have to figure out a few things in my configuration, but I’m all excited geektastic style.

Now I really need to get to bed. :)
