Obnoxious self promotion

Just a little self promotion.

The August issue of Tux Magazine is out, and there is
an article by me about KDETV (pages 21 - 24). 

Funny things can happen when working to a deadline.
During the writing of the article I had a bit of
trouble with the TV tuner card I was using, so I could
only get a handful of channels. Now, to illustrate the
screen capture function I needed an image taken from
the TV. Ideally I would have loved to grab screen
shots from "Space" or the "Discovery" channel (my
favourites :-) ), but that wasn't an option for me and
I was running out of time. Any event, I caught Jan
Wong, a journalist with the Globe and Mail Newspaper
being interviewed on Vision TV. Not ideal in my books,
but good enough. So, I figure the editor will put that
in as a little thumbnail image to show the screen
capture feature works... Last page of the article and
a BIG image of Jan Wong... You never know...

Well, next up on my plate articles on "Doom 3 & Quake
3" (almost done), "Procmail" and "Freespire".
