122 Announcements week 1

Getting Started

Labs start week 1 in 026 Kla. Make sure your Gladstone account is active before you go to your lab. Please use DuckWeb to verify that your Primary Email Address is correct, and do this asap.

026 Kla Help Sessions

The following three help sessions are scheduled in 026 Kla: W 3/31 5-6:00, F 4/2 4-5:00, and W 4/7 5-6:00. If you need more help with the material covered in labs week 1, then attend one or both of these sessions.

SSH Secure Shell for Windows

The DuckWare CD used to include SSH Secure Shell from SSH Communitications Security (www.ssh.com), but now includes PuTTY instead, as SSH became a commercial product. SSH is a superior application, and a non-commercial version is still available for download. See our Web Refs page for details.

Misc

Want to try out a standards-compliant browser? Download and install one of the Mozilla browsers: FireFox 0.8, or Mozilla 1.6 (select the "browser-only" install, if you do not want the IRC, email, etc., components).

Ring tones are big business, with $2.5 billion spent to buy them worldwide last year.
