Just a couple of things:

1. Did you notice that parnote, meemaw and Rudge released the May issue of The PCLinuxOS Magazine on May 1st?    :D
Could they be setting a precedent?  Or maybe they just didn't have any exciting plans over the weekend and had a lot of time to give to the magazine.  ;D
Well Done!!!

2. What a great cover longtomjr made for the magazine. To me the rainbow represents all the different kinds of articles featured.  Or maybe it is a reminder of all the colorful characters we have in the forum?  :P

3. I especially want to thank joechimp for helping me with the write-ups for the Heroes in ms_meme's Nook.  Lots of PM's went back and forth to get it going.  joechimp not only counts your posts but he reads them too.  That's why he knows so much about you and could help with the writing.

Many many thanks, joechimp!!  :-*

It is always a pleasure to read the Magazine each month. This month is no different.
Always something to learn and things to make you smile.

Ms_me thank you for the kind words. It is a pleasure and a privilege to help you and contributing to the magazine is indeed an honor.
There is a 5th dimension,beyond that which is known to man.It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity,between science& superstition,& it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge.This is the dimension of imagination.It is an area which we call PCLINUXOS!
