Goodbye Windows

I have finally bit the bullet and have said my fond fair well to the Windows family, after years of heartache, misery, tears and viruses!

Hello Open Source world!!!

Ubuntu on my Main Machine and Xubuntu on my net-book. I look forward to working with you""

New Google Chrome BETA 6

imageGoogle Chrome users will be pleased to notice that a new BETA version has been released to the wild and is full of new additions.  Simply head over to Chrome BETA page and click the link.  After you click on the link the Chrome Installer will pop up and begin to download Chrome and will open it for you after installation.
One of the new features is Autofill which is used to complete forms with name, address, credit card etc where previously I used LassPass to do this.  Synchronisation has also been updated for the browser to sync directly with your Google bookmarks and preferences after you log in to a Google account on any computer allowing you to have instant access to your preferences ideal for someone with multiple computers and wants to have access to their latest bookmark information in a convenient way without having to use plugins like Xmarks.
According to SunSpider and V8 who run benchmark tests they have noticed a 15% speed increase when compared to the previous Chrome BETA release.
