Can You Completely Secure Linux? – Administering CentOS 6 from the command line is not always intuitive and easy, especially when it comes to complex commands with hard-to-remember arguments and strict syntax. Many CentOS servers lack an X Window System graphical interface, which supports applications that could ease administration tasks. They can, however, run text-based user interfaces (TUI), which are often in the form of wizards, and which provide options for navigation, accept text input, and show progress bars.

Tracktion, Music Production Software – Jules first created Tracktion in 2001, driven to creating a music production platform that was both easy and powerful. Inspired by code revolutionaries such as Larry Tesler (Chief Scientist Apple Computers), Jules approached the task from the perspective of elegant software design – rather than trying to digitize and recreate the typical recording studio workflows of the day (tape machines, mixing consoles and racks of outboard gear) – an approach taken by other popular platforms such as Cubase, Logic and Pro Tools.

Devon Ceptor: $99 Linux-based HDMI stick for enterprise – Devon IT plans to launch a tiny device called the Ceptor in July which you can plug into any TV or monitor to turn it into a thin client machine. Basically the Ceptor is a $99 device that’s small enough to fit in your pocket.
