A Little About This Blog

These are the mindless ramblings of a Windows and Linux systems administrator.  This blog is a place for me to put stuff I think I might either need later or at least be interested in reading later.  Most of the “Tips and Tricks” section is copied from various GWN’s on the Gentoo Linux site.  I always find it hard to find the tips in the GWN’s when I need them.  I thought it would be easier to find them on my blog.
