In December 2016, I kicked off a migration to Linux (from OS X) as my primary laptop OS. Let me start by saying that I am actively using a Linux-powered laptop as my primary laptop right now, and I have been doing so since early February. Linux Distribution. I’m using Enpass on my OS X, Linux, and iOS devices.

I’m now roughly six months into using Linux as my primary laptop OS, and it’s been a few months since my last progress report. I’m still using the Dell Latitude E7370, which continues—from a hardware perspective—to perform admirably. For an individual who travels a fair amount, offline access to my calendar is a reasonable requirement.

I’m now roughly six months into using Linux as my primary laptop OS, and it’s been a few months since my last progress report. I’m still using the Dell Latitude E7370, which continues—from a hardware perspective—to perform admirably. My line-up of applications also remains largely unchanged as well.

It’s been a bit longer than usual since the last Tech Short Take (partly due to the US Thanksgiving holiday, partly due to vacation time, and partly due to business travel), so apologies for that. Servers/Hardware. Both articles are worth reviewing if hardware selection is an important aspect of your role. Virtualization.

Normally, I try to publish these on Fridays, but some personal travel prevented that this time around so I’m publishing on a Monday instead. That prompted Cody Bunch to write this article on setting up a topology with BGP on Linux using the topology converter , which I’m now mentioning in this Technology Short Take. Servers/Hardware.

Sorry for the long delay since the last TST; some global travel has really thrown my schedule off. This article by Red Hat provides a reasonable overview of various networking options available in OpenStack (specifically, Red Hat’s OpenStack distribution) to support Network Functions Virtualization (NFV). Servers/Hardware.
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
