lonely code poet no more

it gets a bit lonely coding on one's own. starting next week i'll have an old friend coming over to work on his projects at my house. a local benefactor who is selling kubuntu-based server solutions into the local SME market (rather successfully, and in part due to KDE) brought 7 feet of desk space and attendant "work space" equipment (networking, lcd monitors, kvms, etc) needed to make this work.

so now i'll another human being who is a pleasure to be around in my space. it will be nice to have seomone besides the laser printer to have design discussions with.

and if you are a programmer or some other form of contributor working on open source stuff in calgary and would like to come hang out and hack on $WHATEVER some day(s) drop me a line. it's not the biggest place in the world, but i've got wireless, desks and beer in the fridge.

He is selling servers with KDE ( or otherwise I assume they would be plain Ubuntu? ) Are they terminal servers? I always thought businesses could save a bomb by switching everything to something like LTSP, with cheap client machines.

I wish that you were in the Greater Vancouver Regional District. I'd love to code with a group of people. I like designing things.
