Linux Magazine (UK) - Racer!

Issue 17 (March) of Linux Magazine here in the UK has as one of the featured programs on its cover CD, a certain driving simulation going by the name of "Racer". A quick look inside the mag, and yes, it's *that* Racer! (Had the old URL, but you can't really fault them for that, as the mag must have gone to press a while ago.) A cold and wet day here in the Midlands, but this made up for it a bit. Well done, Ruud! The issue isn't officially available until tomorrow, but it was in WH Smith in Merry Hill today. Here's Linux Magazine's website: http://www.livepublishing.co.uk/linux/ -- "After all, a mere thousand yards... such a harmless little knoll, really" - Raymond Mays on Shelsley Walsh.

Well done, Ruud! Thanks! :) Unfortunately the issue on the homepage is still Issue 16. Hope they updated it soon; I was zooming with Photoshop to see if that red blur was the Ferrari 312. ;-) I've known about it because the author of the article mailed me some time ago. The fun thing is that he was complaining about some article in the magazine and got the chance to do his own. Can't wait to get the copy here. I'm supposed to get it sent over here, but I'll look in the shops here anyway. >http://www.livepublishing.co.uk/linux/ Ruud van Gaal Free car sim: http://www.racer.nl/ Pencil art : http://www.marketgraph.nl/gallery/

Yeah, but why is it that the "free" ones cost so much more than the for hire ones? KFG

Here in Holland most girls are pretty modern and insist on paying their own way. :) And a real girl gives more pleasure than a hired one. Well, not that I ever hired one. ;-) Ruud van Gaal Free car sim: http://www.racer.nl/ Pencil art : http://www.marketgraph.nl/gallery/

I don't know about that one, lol, but in any case: free software is fine, free sex is best. :) >Congrats, Ruud. Racer really deserves this. Thanks. :) Now only if I can find some shop here that sells the mag, just incase the UK magazine doesn't arrive here somehow.
