Welcome to another issue of Full Circle!
We have the usual Python, LibreOffice, Inkscape and Blender HowTo's. Joining them this month is an extensive HowTo on the genealogy app Personal Ancestral File. A Windows app! Fear not, David O. Rowell shows you how to install it using Wine, then how to use PAF for entering your family history. Yes, Linux has GRAMPS, but there's not much else should you need an alternative. Thankfully, PAF works pretty flawlessly using Wine.
No doubt you've all heard about Ubuntu for phones and tablets by now. This month, we have two articles dealing with just that. First is Lucas (Command and Conquer) who discusses what it is. Later in the issue, Copil (Ask The New Guy) mentions it in his roundup of what else Ubuntu has to offer and what its future might hold.
Need something to keep the kids busy over the coming holidays? Check out Copil's review of Python For Kids (from No Starch Press). And, if Copil can understand it, your kids will find it a breeze. Just kidding, Copil! On the subject of reviews, you might like Art's review of Chrome OS. Is it even a threat to Windows or OSX? Art thinks so. So much so that it might even be a threat to our beloved Linux! Speaking of crazy things, I'm hoping that the opinion piece from Knightwise will prompt some discussion (the one from former FCM podcaster Ed didn't). He even mentions Windows. I told you he was crazy!
As ever, keep sending in your articles, desktop screens, reviews, stories, opinions, and anything else Linux related.
All the best, and keep in touch! Ronnie
