VNC and X server architectures Linux® uses the X Window System (X for short) as its graphical user interface (GUI).

Enable multiuser logins with VNC

X is an unusual GUI in several ways, one way being that it's inherently network enabled. An X server is literally a network server program. Network server programs give client programs access to local resources, and this is true of an X server, as well. The oddity is that the "local resources" in the case of an X server are the display, keyboard, and mouse, which the user uses. When X is used over a network, though, the user sits at the X server computer, and X's clients are the programs that the user wants to run on another computer. Apache OpenOffice 4 is here. Apache OpenOffice 4.0 has been released.

Apache OpenOffice 4 is here

This is the first major milestone release since the Free and Open Source software Office suite was donated to the Apache Software Foundation by Oracle. It is also the first Apache OpenOffice version that includes code and features merged from IBM’s Symphony.

The list of new and improved features extends to all aspects of OpenOffice’s components – Writer, Impress, Base, Calc, Draw, and the list is a long one.

Your server has multiple hostnames that resolve to a single address, and you want to respond differently for www.example.com and www.example.org. Note Creating virtual host configurations on your Apache server does not magically cause DNS entries to be created for those host names.

Transferring Windows to Another Computer - Super User Blog. We’ve all been there, we have a machine that has Windows installed on it and for some reason that machine is on the way out or we want to do something else with it, and we ask ourselves “Why can’t I just install it on another machine?” In the early years you bought your operating system, installed it wherever you needed it and as far as you were concerned you owned that software. Volume licensing was something big companies did, a home user with two machines bought one copy of the software, installed it on both and that was the end of it. The problem is that companies didn’t like you doing that, big companies want you to buy as many copies of the software as computers you own. Two computers, two copies to buy. It’s only recently with the advent of the internet and almost everyone having at least some access to phone lines that companies have been able to come up with enforceable ways to prevent people from installing the companies software on every computer in sight. 2. 2. 16. 18.

I fall into the category as a bit of a niche user. I wear a helmet camera (front and rear, both HD) while out cycling and doing sports, so I don't use many "mainstream" features such as burning to BluRay.
