Worked on judoplaces.com. Check links. Some additions. Mostly deletions. Added link to Facebook & Twitter if exists. Added Address2 to remove extra info on address1 so maps would work correctly. Added many new logos.

VM/370 emulation
Ran VM/370 in a IBM S/370, ESA/390, and z/390 hardware emulator on Linux.
Windows 2000 in a VM
Ran Windows 2000 in a VM. Have had problems for a while with shared folders, appears hung or very slow. Found a workaround on the Internet that appears to work [no hanging] for me….Map Network Drive. From “Windows Explorer” select Tools/Map Network Drive to associate Shared folder with a drive letter. You then can access …
RSTS/E
Ran the RSTS/E OS in a PDP emulator in a Windows 2000 shell running in a Linux VM. This was the first OS I worked with professionally.
LinuxMint 14.1 Cinnamon
Replaced Kubuntu with LinuxMint 14.1 Cinnamon 64bit (see Mar. 4th). Because of Kubuntu’s update procedure which frequently seemed to hang around 57% (If I remember).

LinuxMint 14.1 Cinnamon 64bit

Things fixed over my LinuxMint 13 Cinnamon 32 bit…1) Software Manager progress meter no longer appears to hang. 2) Can now restart from logout screen 3) Of course it …
Steam
Bought a native Linux game [The Book of Unwritten Tales $4.99 @ 75% off] from Steam. This is big news. For years one of Linux’s weaknesses has been the lack of quality games. It’s one of the two reasons I still keep MS-Windows around…the other being MS-Access. Anyway Steam just released a Linux client which …
LAMP stack
Want to install LAMP stack. Had problems previously installing each piece. So I installed my current distro in a VM…then cloned it (incase I needed to get back to beginning quickly). Install LAMP piece by piece, but had problems with phpMyAdmin. So restored clone. and reinstalled using XAMPP, much easier but still a problem with …
Memory
Ordered/installed 1 GB of memory on sisters PC. Replace motherboard battery which was causing BIOS to lose settings and time. Much faster/better.
