Advocate for free content and ICT4D Not that I'm an expert on ICT - but I provide a novice's perspective.

Co-founder of Appropedia, the wiki for sustainable development.

Using: Thinkpad R60

OS:

  • Currently Mandriva 2008 One.
  • Planning to move to Fedora 9 XFCE spin in May 2008 as I want something faster and lighter - see Why is Linux so resource hungry? (p2)
  • Xubuntu 7.04 & Ubuntu 7.10 gave me huge headaches - many things didn't work for me.
  • PCLinuxOS was good, but restrictive in terms of allowed packages. Doesn't feel like free software.
  • OpenSUSE seems good, but DVD install not good for ICT4D.
