I have subscribed to a newsletter from the cnet for a week now. Though most of the articles concern Hardware Closeouts, refurbish items and mp3 downloads only available in the USA, there are some great international available software deals and freebies. But this week they talked about linux. There was also another free dvd ripper article that is still available. And most of them are wrong what action should I take in such issues occur, please help your help is needed the most right now.
