Economy Size Geek

Ok I’m switch back to Linux for development. (I’ll probably be stuck doing Windows/Rails tech support for some time - but at least my operating environment is stable again).

I’m up and running on Dapper. (Yeah I know it isn’t official yet) They continue to polish and I love it. They even managed to fully support my Broadcom wireless card in my laptop (goodbye ndiswrappers).

One small annoyance - when you setup your Ubuntu box - it defaults to nano as the editor. I know someone who probably loves that. I prefer vi(m). I finally found how to change it.

sudo update-alternatives --config editor

Who knew it could be so easy :) I was assuming you had to modify an environment variable or something…..
