A. Distros
Whereas I got many great distros to work with regularly, I am still missing Elive and Pisi Linux to have all the distros I want in my laptop. I hope I can get them before Mageia turns 4.
B. Tablets
I never got the Vivaldi tablet... but I received a great ZaTab instead. My three-year old daughter is enjoying it: she has learned how to operate it and she finds no problem switching from a desktop with Mageia/MiniNo to a laptop with PCLOS/Mageia and then to the ZaTab with Android.
C. Games
Desura and Steam have truly compensated for my lacking gaming experience on Linux. When I migrated, I abandoned gaming because some of the games I liked were nearly impossible to play. However, I have discovered some new games that I really like:
- The Bard's Tale
- Braid
- Worms Reloaded
- Machinarium
- Violett
I am not such a heavy gamer as to need or want a console. However, I am considering getting a Steam Machine...
E. Projects for 2014
Besides writing several articles, poems, ans short stories (using Linux, of course), I'd like to learn some Python and, why not, trying to learn how to develop Android apps. I mean, I am no programmer, but it sounds like fun.
I am also considering to save some money to buy a new Linux laptop.
Another interesting fact is that now I can buy laptops with Linux preinstalled here. Well, they only do Ubuntu, but it's refreshing... The world is changing.
MepisantiX looks promising, too. As soon as it is available, I'll test it.
