Welcome to the last issue of Full Circle.
The last of 2011 that is. It's another bumper issue this month with a little bit of everything: make a persistent USB stick, create a backup with SpiderOak, LibreOffice Calc, making 11.10 look 'classic', and how to connect to IRC. Not only that but Ubuntu Games has grown to two articles each month, so please welcome Riku and Jennifer as our regular gamers. Charles has taken over the Linux Labs column and, this month, shows you how to install XBMC (Xbox Media Centre). I've also added a few other new bits to this issue, but I'll let you find them yourself.
Robin 'Mr. Podcast' Catling makes an appearance with his review of Puppy Linux. Now based on Lucid Lynx, Puppy is even more relevant to us than in previous incarnations, and if you haven't tried it yet on your old hardware I definitely recommend it. It's small, lightning fast, and fully equipped for that aging hardware you have lying around gathering dust.
The majority of people voted that they would attend, or would be interested in attending, an FCM IRC meeting each month. I'll try and set something up for January/February 2012 if possible. I'll announce a date either in FCM#57 or online via our website mailing list, Facebook, and Google+, so stay tuned!
Don't forget to check out the questionnaire for next month. Fill it in and you could be in with a chance to win 100GB of cloud space courtesy of SpiderOak. We'll also pick winners from Twitter and Facebook. See the 'I Think' results pages for more info.
All the best, keep in touch, and I'll see you all in 2012! Ronnie ronnie@fullcirclemagazine.org
