<br>
I just picked up one of those large flashy UK based Linux magazines at<br>
the bookstore. This one is Linux User & Developer -<br>
<a href="http://www.linuxuser.co.uk" target="_blank">http://www.linuxuser.co.uk</a> . It's Issue 95. It doesn't really give a<br>
date. Similar ones include Linux Format, and Linux User Pro. I really<br>
like these magazines, but I hate the price, $ 16 + tax for this one. I<br>
wish there was a cheaper alternative in addition to Linux Journal, which<br>
I also like. It's priced like a conventional magazine.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I thought I'd mention some topics in this one, in case some of<br>
you want to get the magazine. The article that made me buy it was the<br>
QT development article, but the rest look really cool too.<br>

<br>
* Is the Spirit of Open Source Being Distorted?<br>
<br>
* Programming Arduino - Part 1<br>
<br>
* Build Packages for Multiple Platforms with the OpenSUSE Build Service<br>
<br>
* Coding With the QT Framework<br>
[Ron: This one look very cool.]<br>
<br>
* Reviews<br>
- Virtualization Hypervisors<br>
[Ron: They didn't include VirtualBox, but VirtualBoxOSE is on<br>
the DVD along with a tutorial. I don't know if this is different from<br>
the Oracle one or not. I'm hoping someone will fork that.]<br>
- D-Link Boxee Box<br>
- Toshiba Folio 100<br>
- Popcorn Hour A-210<br>
<br>
There's lots more, but these are some of the best ones.<br>
