nah, it wasn't the hamster, it was the old boring dude

not clarkson, not hamster, but the 3rd guy. i don't even know his name, haha

patrickv

dude are you serious ? it's not really different, simon uses ubuntu, and ubuntu has a home folder (or lets call it may documents), created especially for your personal stuff, damn nearly all linux distro has a home folder, or you can create folders somewhere else, correct me if im wrong

You know in windows how you have Windows Explorer?

Linux also uses file managers. Gnome uses Nautilus, KDE uses Konqueror (which also doubles as a web browser), not sure what the others use.

You can have tree views or icon views and of course for images there is icon view.

Here's some pics for you. The folders and files with a . in front are hidden folders and files, and are toggled with CTRL H or set to view or not view all the time via the menu.



And no, I haven't used Windows at home since moving to Linux

Hammond was the one who went in the rocket car and promptly nearly killed himself as a result. May went in the Veyron.

Yeah that's right it was May in the Veyron. Did you ever see that episode when they blasted a car into the air on the back of a giant rocket? I can't remember any exact details about it (might have been a Metro or something like that ) , only that it was a good episode. I'll try and find it on Youtube.
