    Ubuntu's friendly fire

    Mandriva Up For Sale Anyone remember Mandriva? I'm guessing that if it wasn't for Ubuntu's success and inroads into commercial markets Mandriva would be doing a lot better.

    What are some things you love that you never thought you'd love doing?

    What if... Cassano had gone to Barcelona instead?

    Is there a chance he would have gotten his career on track? Clearly Guardiola knows how to handle the stuck up, unstable specimen (Eto'o, now Zlatan) and before him Rijkaard managed fairly well too. Naturally, Barcelona seems to have more semblance of sanity in the locker room as well.

    Historical Juve books?

    I'm not really the type to read books about sports, but I'd like to know if you guys know about any books that tell the story of our history? For instance, I'd love to read about the 80s with Trap and Platini. Anyone into this?
