Crave Essentials: Travel tech we love

Crave It's also smaller and easier to carry than a PC Card, and requires minimal technical competence to use. Of course, we need a bag to carry all this kit in and the Crumpler Ripper Tripper not only protects the laptop, but also comes with a dedicated...

A Letter from Linuxland -- Part 2

Crave The next most sensible thing would be to back up an image of the disk, so I could later rip out Ubuntu and carry on as if nothing had happened. But five minutes of poking around at random got me all the important, useful things I needed to carry on.
