Online Banking and SUSE

Are you in doubt about online banking? Do you hesitate when using a credit card online? If so, take a look at this interesting interview with Kevin Mitnick. Normally I do not use CNN as a source, but they did the interview. Kevin is an expert in the security field and has written several books that deal with his past hacking exploits. Nice interview. Thanks goes out to Scuttle Monkey at Slashdot for the link.

Linux SUSE 10.0 is available for download. It's a good idea to have high speed connectivity when trying to download. There's a lot of traffic. Might want to use a mirror site near you too. Linux comes in many different flavors known as "distros." SUSE is user friendly and the installation is painless. What about your Windows software running in Linux? Take a look at WINE HQ. No this is not a refreshing beverage. It's a compatability layer for running Windows applications. Interested in Linux? Check out LinuxISO.org.
