one for those of us in the UK that are still students or going to be students (I am only nominally a student) http://www.pingwales.co.uk/2007/01/11/UKFSN-Price.html

It has been a slightly less eventful than usual week possibly due to the New Year. Never the less it has still seen many developments with both the Mint distro and the forum. mintDesktop has been updated to version 1.2 which adds automatic Windows network mounting and a graphical frontend for config...

people doing jobs? nah, can't be it is nearly christmas
