My girlfriend - This is a blind faith link, since there's no content as of yet. My old roommate - he's a little odd. It's got some stuff worth keeping, but I felt like a new image.
A news/info source run by a Linux advocate. A Linux portal run by those wacky guys at VA Research and some former Themes.org staff. A good news source. Has technical articles and more sophisticated news/op eds then I've seen elsewhere. A Yahoo! like interface to Linux info. A "classic" Linux site, established, but seems a bit jaded. Information Archives/Search engines Search Engine Linux Software Database Very useful for finding information on just about anything technical. Linux Tips and Tricks Fermilab's Linux Site Ifyou need to setup something in the Linux world, you consult the HOW-TOs. This is a big site with most, if not all, of those files. An excellent starting point for almost anything you're looking for. Duh... Where you get the latest kernel from.

This makes it easier to find the right ones. Just "have" to run that windows program? Try running it under WINE (Wine Is Not an Emulator). Tucows made a search engine and software download site aimed at Linux users. An excellent way to export an X display to a Win32 machine. It will also function as an X server in its own right. They also make a "High Performance CORBA 2 ORB A "general hypertext cross-referencing tool", or so they say. They use it to display source code through web pages, with hypertext links, making it easily readable...
