It's a Cold Day in NJ

It really seems to be frigid - and cooling. However, we're supposed to be gay and upbeat at this time of year. After all, the Ubuntu machine hasn't crashed yet, I haven't broken any New Year's Resolutions (I only kept one of 2009's - the one about not making any for 2010!), and I haven't starved to death yet.

Last time I commented on the insanities of changing a keyboard layout, noting that Asus had shipped a non-standard one with my new Eee-Box, despite having a normal one with the Eee-PC I got in 2008. Well, I did ferret out a way of swapping the two keys (Control and Function) within Linux, and will be playing around with it to experiment. Meanwhile, it's here. It looks uncannily easy, so I'm worried!
