I installed Ubuntu today on a VMWare... I know, it must be Ubuntu's day, Matt blogged about his experience too. I'm not as extremist and not a M$ hater... I installed it on a VM machine using VMWare Workstation. Ubuntu comes with Open Office, Firefox, Gaim, so you're almost ready to go. I installed Eclipse, CFEclipse, Aptana, XMLBuddy, and IE6. heh, I know what you thinking, but Adobe only provide a Flash 7 release for linux, so I installed Wine and IE6+Flash9... mostly for Flash 9 support. I will probably only use it for my Flex Development.

I still haven't been able to modify my screen resolution to support wide 1440x900px. I'm sure I'll find a way tomorrow.

I'm also looking fw to try to connect Ubuntu to my exchange server this week ... if I can do that successfully it would be a big plus. I also need itunes, or a way to manage my ipod... Anyways, I've only played with it a few hours... more to come soon.

For those who haven't noticed the logo in my blog, I am now part of the Adobe Community Experts, a group dedicated to provide high caliber peer-to-peer communication educating and improving the product skills of Adobe customers worldwide through speaking engagements, articles, forums, etc. I used to be a major contributor to the MM ColdFusion forums a few years ago, and then stopped because of lack of time, but I started to post a little more lately...

I'm looking to present another Breeze session on Ajax for the Online ColdFusion Meetup Group but this time it will be code only: lots of demos, walk through code, start projects from scratch ... Last time I got a good feedback, but I covered way to much and could show much code... so this time it's a follow up with nothing to show but code.
