Dude, I'm gettin' a fire extinguisher!
Good link. I also have a lot of similar documentation if you follow the link in my sig: Anti-Trend's Home
According to Secunia, IE6 has a quantity of fairly serious and unpatched bugs right now. You can see to-the-minute current vulnerability reports...
Again I agree with megamaced. Additionally, I've found that the Opera web browser is much more fast & responsive on older hardware than Firefox....

Too much to list here, try it and find out. Besides, even if you don't care for it, it's the default CLI text editor on nearly every UNIX...

Almost, but not quite.#Configure your new kernel. ("?" is your friend!) make menuconfig #Move the .config and clean up the kernel source mv...
That and YaST blows, and the whole system seems to revolve around it. YaST may be better than the "Windows Control Panel" or whatever, but it's...
KGet seemed too flakey for my taste. I usually use Firefox with the DownThemAll! plugin, or barring that just go old-school and use the...
