I recently purchased an HP Mini-Note 2133 with SUSE preinstalled. While not so bad SUSE had it’s weeknesses. Wifi for one was unacceptably flaky and the interface was more than little unfriendly, so I decided to go ahead and give Ubuntu a try.

To check out the progress see the HP Mini-Note page.

Like most people after a time you end up with tons of photos, music, and dupliates of both. On multiple occasions I’ve foraged the Internet for a simple tool to get this done and after multiple attempts I’ve come up empty; that is until now.

The solution is a common irony. The tool found has existed on the Internet forever, I just didn’t enter the correct magical terms for Google to find it.

Without further ado, it’s CloneSpy. It works great at automating removal of duplicate files of any type not just photos and music. The best part is the program doesn’t even need installation, you just extract and run.

Computing would be so much more pleasent with more apps like this.

The new Apple Bluetooth Keyboard came in this morning so I thought I’d share a few photos at flickr.
