Well, as I posted a day or two ago, I pre-ordered a copy of SuSE 9.1 Personal beginning of April and it shipped out to me last Friday.

Just got the word today that the copy of SuSE 9.1 I ordered is on its way. I hope it works with the new machine-all I can think of when I use it is, "I bet KDE would fly on this!"
Even if it doesn't work, I'll get a nifty SuSE Live CD out of it. And I figure it's my way of contributing to Linux. Or Novell, depending on your point of view.
He's tried most of the other major distros with the same results, so any help would be appreciated.
I bought a Compaq Presario R3000 and it just came in yesterday. Verrrry nice.
This past weekend my favourite little workhorse computer "neodymium" died. I bought him used a couple of years ago for $75; he was only a P166 with 32M of RAM and a 2GB HD but he was great with small Linux installs like Vector Linux. He was the first notebook I ever owned, and the one responsible for putting me firmly in the Notebooks From Now On camp.

Over the last little while I've noticed two new ways to try to sneak spam under my radar. By "radar" I mean spam filters of course. Anyway, the first was kind of interesting and it all but had to be designed to beat Bayesian filtration. The entire message was a commentary on Stanley Kubrick's film-making career, and was a good page and some in length.

So...am I the only one who still moderates? Here I am with Moderator status again, the third time in less than a week. In fact I only managed to use up the last two mod points yesterday afternoon.
I don't mind moderating, I think it's kind of a duty to make the site better. And so I'd rather not turn it off. But it seems a teensy bit much-I've tried steering clear of meta-moderating but to no avail.
So my original question stands-am I the only moderator out there?
