Hardware upgrades

At work I’ve recently got hold of two nice hardware upgrades: a portable 60 Gb HD (useful for carrying around large data) and an 80 Gb hard disk. The latter was much needed as the 40 Gb HD inside my Acer Veriton 7500G was getting rather small, both on the Windows side (which sadly I still need to use for some things) and on the Linux side (at one point / filled up, resulting in a system that would not log into X at all).I already made backups and moved the data, installing a fresh copy of Kubuntu 7.04 on the new HD. This means I’ll be able to keep my laptop at home and avoid largely nerdish settings such as this:
