New Versions of Linux

I've been using Debian almost exclusively as my Linux platform of choice, however, I think it's time to take a gander at Ubuntu Server. It's built from Debian, meaning it can use the APT repository (which is one big reason why I like Debian). It's also meant to act as a server, which could be good for me. I want to test e-mail settings on my server in case I need to set up a new server.

Moreover, I'm going to take another look at gOS. I tried gOS once a while back on a woefully inadequate computer and it was a miserable disaster. However, I have a computer that's slightly more powerful (P4 w/ 256mb of memory) that may be able to handle gOS. If gOS runs well, it might be a viable alternative to Windows on the lower end computers we have in the office.

In other news, I've been hired recently as a consultant to a law firm. I'm going to use this opportunity to potentially jump-start a consulting side business. I've since registered a new domain (methompson.com) and will start developing a website for that domain.
