I love it when a geeky plan comes together. A few weeks ago I heard a story on the Geek Acres podcast about a grade school teacher who installed Ubuntu Linux on a bunch of iMacs that had been donated to his school. I have a lime-green G3 iMac at home that's been running Mac OS X 10.3 … but is just crying out for experimentation.

I used ScooterDMan's original article as my starting point, and decided to try installing the same version of Ubuntu Linux that he did: the low-profile Xubuntu, which is designed to run on older hardware.

According to the Morning Call, Apple is going to be opening an official Apple Store in the new upscale addition to the Lehigh Valley Mall. This means we'll no longer have to trek to Bridgewater, N.J. for our Mac and iPod goodness.
