Looks like it's another great issue.  I just finished downloading the pdf and will start reading later today.
Thanks again to parnote and the entire PCLinuxOS Magazine team for all of the work they do for us.

I look forward to this magazine each and every month.  This month is sure to be a benefit to me.

The article on grub is just what I have been hoping for.   It took just a few minutes to make my grub list less cluttered, and easier to look at! 

Then I came across the article by Parnote about image manipulation with the mogrify command.  My goodness, what a blessing.  Being fortunate enough to receive a new DLSR (digital) camera last month, I really needed this information!  I thought I was going to be able to get some (employment) work done today, but no! 

Hopefully I will finish this month's issue of the PCLinuxOS magazine sometime soon.  But with gems of information like this, it may take a while. 

Thanks to all who contributed!

What a knowledge rich issue this is. Paul you and the gang outdid yourselves. I normally don't post until I have read all that I was interested in. Well there is so much in this issue that I am going to need more time to finish it. Thank you to all that have contributed.
YouCanToo  "THE TIRELESS" , that is what I shall call you. You give so much it is simply amazing. Thank You.

I am saddened  to hear that ms_meme will no longer be doing forum foibles. She has been away from the forum as well now for some time. I hope her new activity is making her smile. She deserves that. It is good to know she is going to be here for the nook though. Wouldn't want her to disappear.  :o An amazing woman. I thank you for all you have done and allowing me from time to time to be part of it. We all Love you dear lady .  ;D ;D ;D

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!
