Take an old O2 Joggler (cost £50), a freebie USB hub, mouse, Bluetooth keyboard and adapter, a 4 gig USB drive and a download of Ubuntu from StephenFord.org. Et voila! A fully functional Ubuntu PC. Nice!

Something is stirring in the undergrowth on the tangled bank... You'll find my evolving thoughts here, but not those of my employer, and certainly not any medical advice...

Santa brings a Kindle
I must have been a very good boy last year; the jolly one in red stuck an Amazon Kindle in my sack, and it's great! Now I can read all those voluminous PDFs that cause such iStrain on my iPhone and a PITA on my PC. And I've got a load of books, including freebies downloaded from Project Gutenberg and Word files and such like. Happy days!
I do now have the Atheists' Guide to Christmas downloaded; some of the contributions are marvellous, some are a bit pants, but as they're all commendably concise, it's a good read by the fireside between courses.
Reading - that's what elevates us above the beasts, folks.

Kindle bells.
Season's Greetings, Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and all the rest! Amazon has the "Atheist's Guide to Christmas" reduced to £2.99 for the Kindle edition. And it looks like there is a new edition about to hit the e-shelves too.
Here you'll find uplifting and seasonal offerings from the likes of Ariane Sherine, Richard Dawkins, Derren Brown, Brian Cox and many more.
Christmas is a time for sharing, loving, giving, peace and joy. Spread it around - Christmas is for everyone, and the myths and rituals just add to the fun.
