During tonight's DPA steering committee meeting, I tried to download the latest version of Ubuntu Linux. I ordered a disk last year, but I have since misplaced it. Unofortunately, I wasn't able to download the entire file (about 700 Mb) before I left; the place was closing for the night. I'll have to try again some other time, or order another disk. In any event, I'll have to learn how to checksum and burn ISO files.

I'm now downloading the latest versions of AVG Anti-Virus and Ad-Aware. I just wish Harborlink didn't force me to watch their Flash intro; that would have saved me a few minutes. [Updated 22:10] I also wish Harborlink's server didn't cut in every 15 minutes to display their splash page.

Where are your favorite Wi-Fi places? I like to go to the Boston Stoker (a local coffee house chain) and Panera Bread. I always make a "courtesy purchase" of food or beverage when I come in with the laptop.
