Great SIM game on PALM

Words can explain how happy I am to find a real SIM game for my PALM! Great programmers have brought Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe to the PALM. Check out: http://www.esoftinteractive.com/openttd.html

Here is a quote from their website:
"Now you may play Transport Tycoon Deluxe on the go! Experience the greatest of tycoon games on the palm of your hand, available for both Pocket PC and Palm OS 5."

You must have the commercial game to run this, but it is available cheap online so that makes this a real bargain. Sure, my blog has not mentioned games before, but this is just to sweep a waiting room killer not to mention. Go get this!

It's simple, so why is it so hard ...

I've run school computer labs for 10 years now. To do so efficiently I need to have three tools in place. One, easy start-and-walk-away setup of computer clients. Two, easy remote install/uninstall of software. Three control over who does what when and where.

On Macs I do one with Netboot/Netrestore, two with Remote Desktop, and three with Open Directory and MCX settings. On windows I can do one with RIS, two with MSI packaging, and three with Active Directory and GPOs.

So why is this hard to do on Linux? I've heard of custom stuff, but why is it not just easy and simple. Why do these tools not come with Edubuntu? Any help?

Spanning Sync goes online

I'm sure you've heard, but if not, go and get this app. It does what it claims to do. Now my PALM, iCal, and Google calendar all read and write to the same set of calendars. Very good, reasonable cost.
