The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    In case you guys missed it 3 days ago, check out unixkcd...


    http://www.xkcd.com/unixkcd

    Give a few familiar UNIX and Linux commands a try, and you might find a surprise.

    Try...

    man
    ping
    make me a sandwich
    sudo make me a sandwich
    su
    sudo
    apt-get moo
    ssh
    help
    cheat
    emacs
    vim
    nano
    kill

    And so much more!

    (This totally is messing up my productivity)
