I seem to have vanished, yeah? Apologies for that, and also apologies for having to extend my hiatus a bit longer.

As I mentioned doing a few months back, I went through with putting linux on all of my machines on July 8th. I don't regret the switch one bit. However, I did willingly give up photoshop by doing so. That's the main reason why I haven't done anything. I plan to remedy this by installing a virtual machine of 7 sometime in the next month or two, which I can put photoshop and other windows-only programs on.

Now I am currently furthering my education and being busy with the things associated with that. Even if I were to magically obtain a brand new computer exclusively for doing arts tomorrow, I wouldn't really have the time. This is mostly because it's been, and will continue to be, a low priority for me.

Nevertheless, I will be back eventually. I'm just not sure when that is at the moment.

_{As for my current highest priority outside of school... That would be setting up a server in my living room. I have been calling ISPs to get the best upload speed and that has been a giant headache having to explain to the tech illiterate customer service reps why I would possibly need more than 786Kbps up. Second highest priority is playing around with the free copy of VMware vSphere I got and testing out the many many linux distros.}
