Am I crazy? Nope. It's show time for Linux.

Some of the the Linux flavors have matured enough to be great solutions for keeping family members safe from viruses and giving them the tools, graphically, that they need. So much so that Dell is now offering computers with it as an alternative to Windows.

However, it's not just family members that benefit, it saves the "son-in-law tech support company" a ton of time and headaches.

And now there is a great tool available called Automatix that is a great asset for installing new apps quickly. Sure, I am comfortable with command line work but if there is a gui available that can make installing software simpler than finding a package, decompressing, cd to directory and then running . . . well, I am all for it.

You can see from the photo above that I chose Xubuntu for the install, a smaller footprint of Ubuntu. It's designed to run on low RAM machines.

It's perfect for a mother-in-law prone to installing software from every popup ad that she encounters. Which is the reason that her Toshiba laptop has a desktop that looks like this:



So far so good.

As a challenged command line web server administrator I rely heavily on the WHM and cPanel suite to make my life livable. Sure, I got some SSH moves but they really suck and make my forehead sweat when I have to bust them out.

Scary to you? Way scary to me.

I've used cPanel for about 4 years now and this new version is the most significant upgrade of them all. More control over stuff like php.ini without having to ssh in, Ruby on Rails support and the ability to add Pear packages on the fly without having to recompile php.

I did a little nerd dance.
