And What Direction Might That Be?

[Asides]

My Linux laptop is still stuck with Firefox 3b5—I can’t find a package for a more recent version, Firefox’s “Check for Updates” Help menu item is grayed out, and I never have figured out how to install unpackaged software on Ubuntu.

So far what little experience I’m getting with Linux leaves me underwhelmed.

Update: No sooner did I post this, than the update manager found a passel of updates it missed just moments ago—including FF3.

So, never mind.

The “Check for Updates” Help menu item is still grayed out…
