Open up a terminal window and type this:

A pity it won't work on Solaris or OSX.
You ever seen a cycling plumber who wrestles with small calves, forearms and neck? Didn't think so.

It's a crazy OS where things just work. And they're easy to understand. It's kind of disorienting.

Just added Crouton to my chromebook and messing around with it now. Netsurf web browser is a bit off but otherwise enjoying exploring it. Haven't used Linux since the first incarnation of Red Hat.

After I loaded Crouton I played with it some. Came back to it today and tried to switch between Chrome to Crouton and now the keyboard shortcut for it is no longer working. Any gooroos know how to manually swap or if the switch can only work when you are in developer mode?

I used to use Linux exclusively back in the Ubuntu 9.04 though 10.10 days. For some reason, I went over to Mac, and I've been sorry ever since. I think it's time I made a system 76 order….

I've spent my entire career (17+ years) working with Cisco IOS, JunOS, Solaris, different Linux and BSD flavors and the occasional Windows Server. But my personal devices run OSX and iOS exclusively. And this won't change in the foreseeable furure.

Once you go Mac, there's no coming back.
