The greatest Ubuntu advertisement you've most likely never seen
I was pointed to this earlier today by someone on one of the many Linux lists I hover around. It's a great video, and an awesome presentation built to showcase Ubuntu Netbook Remix (9.10) on Dell systems. It speaks for itself, but it's incredibly well done.

First trailer for Dr. Who Series 5 is available. Geronimo?? Really?
I used to catch the older Dr. Who shows on occasion on PBS. My tastes in British TV always leaned more toward the comedies like Monty Python and Black Adder so the older Dr. Who series never really captured me. That remained the case until I rediscovered The Doctor, and his penultimate incarnation in David Tennant. The Tennant years were glorious. Full of action, adventure, heart break and the cheeky fun that came to symbolize Dr. Who for millions of fans.
On January 2, 2010, however, the David Tennant era came to a close with the series finale, "The End of Time Part 2". Of course, this ended months ago in the UK, as the US airings of Dr Who being months behind the original release, but still, finally, the David Tennant era is past. Replacing the man that made me love The Doctor is a 26 year old actor named Matt Smith. Matt takes the reins of the TARDIS this year as the 11th Doctor, with all new adventures, all new companions, and an all new catch phrase. The David Tennant Dr. was always fond of calling everything and everyone beautiful, and brilliant, and always yelling "Allons-y" as he charged headfirst into battle, or mischief.
However, with a new Doctor comes a new catch phrase, one that I think may take some getting used to... Check out the trailer, the FIRST trailer for the 11th Doctor, and decide for yourself:
