Patch Finder enhanced for improved patch download experience
If you ever need to get patches from Novell, you're going to love this. They've made several enhancements to the Novell patch download experience based on customer and partner feedback. Here's what's new. (Our favorite is the new Quick Search that makes it so you don't have to navigate through all those drop-down menus to get to your product version.)

How to Add Additional Perl Modules to Your Linux Installation
Do you need to use Perl modules, other than the ones that are easily installed via YaST?
Rather than download the relevant archive file for a particular Perl module, extracting the contents, then manually making and installing the module, wouldn't it be nice if there was a way of automating that process and tracking module updates?

The # 1 Question This Holiday Season
The Question
I'll bet you can identify with this, you're at the post office or a coffee shop and you can see the intent in someone's eyes, they're going to ask you "that question", ie:
"I need a new computer, what kind should I get?"
I used to have very long conversations with people, spend lots of time discussing the merits and demerits of the various operating system choices, application alternatives and in general giving away a lot of free consulting.
Note: If they preface the question with the statement "Hey, You're a Computer Guy" it's going to be a rough one, guaranteed.
