Although going freelance sounds intriguing, I doubt that anyone like me with 4 kids and a wife to support would be brave enough to try it.

The default theme for PCLOS Gnome tempted me to try it and as a result convert from Ubuntu. The distro first has to look nice to get people interested and then work well to keep them on it.

I'm having a hard time getting excited about this. In 3 months MS will release version 1.1 and then version 2 coming 6 months after, each with version compatibility issues with the release before. Then a new flavor of the month will catch MS's attention and this will finally stabilize to the point where it can be implemented or identified as junk technology.

Funny, I'm quite often the 'rubber duck' for other members of my team. I was thinking of trying to find a way to get a cardboard cutout of myself that they could pull out when needed.

cdeutmey | 17 years ago | on: College vs Start-up - It's not about the job

If your mind is on your startup, partying, or you don't know what you want to do, I think you'll regret not having the focus and direction you could have put toward college by waiting. Experiencing a couple of failed startups or working a crappy job can really motivate you to put 100% into school. In my case, I became an airborne paratrooper right out of HS, grew up (alot), got $$$ for college, then hit the ground running.
