Linux Buyer's Guide #11. The 11th edition of the Linux Buyer's Guide is out. "New chipets emerged from everyone from VIA to Intel, and even included a newcomer to the motherboard chipset scene, NVIDIA. VIA pushed DDR on the Pentium 4, Intel flexed its muscles with its new i860, and NVIDIA rolled out their new AMD-only chipset, the Crush, along with an obligation to fully support it under Linux."

Tip Of The Week: locate What You're Looking For. LinuxLookup.com helps locate data or a program with the Linux locate command.
