I write a Linux Blog called linuxglobe.wordpress.com, I am strongly disappointed that NO Portable Apps from AbiWord, Audacity, GIMP 2.4, KompoZer, Scribus, Inkscape, Firefox, to Thunderbird, are NOT available for the Fedora 8 OS or Ubuntu 7.10 OS for that matter. Linux is becoming a major threat to Windoze and Portableapps could really help BOOST Linux in so many ways. Also, I use my MAC for other tasks and NO MAC OS X 10.4/10.5 compatible Portableapps are available, this too must be remedied, not everyone in USA is using Microsoft! Please heed my requests, I doubt I am asking much, one portable app at a time is fine with me! Long live the MAC and Linux!!!
When these apps are ready, I will be happy to review them for linuxformat.co.uk AND my blog!
Happy computering in 2008!!!
