Last-minute changes to Windows Vista broke drivers, forcing key hardware vendors to “limp out with issues” when the OS launched last year, according to a presentation by Dell Corp. that was made public this week.
“Late OS code changes broke drivers and applications, forcing key commodities to miss launch or limp out with issues,” said one slide in a Dell presentation dated March 25, 2007, about two months after Vista’s launch at retail and availability on new PCs.

The criticism was just one of many under the heading “What did not go well?” Others ranged from knocks against Vista’s Windows Anytime Upgrade scheme, an in-place upgrade option, to several slams on “Windows Vista Capable,” the marketing program that targeted PC buyers shopping for machines in the months leading up to Vista’s debut.

Here is a nice cheat sheet for Gimp shortcuts that was in the RSS feeds this morning, take a look if you are a linux Gimp user, Baldy

As you might know – we already had a small page about the most important hotkeys in GIMP. But now we’ve collected all available default key bindings of GIMP in a single list.

The hotkeys and shortcuts are based on GIMP 2.4.5 and are seperated into different categories. The link itself hasn’t changed, you can click the link in the left menu: “All GIMP hotkeys” to reach the page.

The 145 systems are:-

3 Dos
5 Windows
137 Linux

I have also installed most of the PC-based BSD and Solaris together with a Darwin x86 too but these systems dislike to co-exist with a large number of other systems so I have to keep them off in another PC until I find a way to tackle the technical issues.

There are only 3 steps in this howto.

See other people do have more systems running than me, Baldy
