== speedy deletes ==
Hi Pat!  Thanks for your help with the speedydeletes.  If you could put them on the top of the article pages, that would help me.  Thanks!  By the way, we're working on the protocols for the priapus article.  Thanks for brining that to our attention.  --[[User:D. Matt Innis|Matt Innis]] [[User talk:D. Matt Innis|(Talk)]] 22:56, 4 April 2007 (CDT)
== Re: Somerset College page ==
Pat, I wrote that page from scratch. I copied nothing from Wikipedia, however I did start the Wikipedia version, so there may be some similarities. I don't know if I should leave the speedy delete there or no, so for the time being I removed it.
== Computer draft ==
Hey I threw a blurb up at [[User_talk:Pat_Palmer/Computer]]. Just letting you know... I think that's the right place to 'bang up' the draft before you take it live --[[User:Eric M Gearhart|Eric M Gearhart]] 07:14, 6 April 2007 (CDT)
==Signing Discussion Comments==
Hey just stopping by to let you know... usually in Talk pages people sign their comments... it makes it a lot easier to read because you can visually see the conversation flow, rather than having to flip back the the History page to see who said what when. <nowiki>--~~~~</nowiki> is the shortcut to signing your comments... it's the little button that actually looks like a signature on the toolbar at the top. It just makes life easier.. I don't know why the MediaWiki software doesn't just automatically sign comments on talk pages come to think of it --[[User:Eric M Gearhart|Eric M Gearhart]] 04:33, 7 April 2007 (CDT)
==Re:Hiatus==
Well... good luck. Please get back on here when you're done.. I can count on one hand the number of active Computers authors on here lol. I'll try and work on the [[Computers/Draft]] some more --[[User:Eric M Gearhart|Eric M Gearhart]] 06:50, 9 April 2007 (CDT)
==Re:Spaces and Parenthesis==
Hey I added to the discussion over at [[Talk:Linux_distribution]] if you'd like to take a look --[[User:Eric M Gearhart|Eric M Gearhart]] 10:12, 9 April 2007 (CDT)
== Going away ==
Haha, yes, I imagine by the time you come back, the entire Eric conspiracy will be controlling the world's information supply, brainwashing people into switching to Linux. hehehe :) --[[User:Joshua David Williams|Joshua David Williams]] 11:10, 9 April 2007 (CDT)
==Dual Channel==
Yeah, honestly, I mean to go back to it and improve it and never really did.  Feel free to trash it.  -- [[User:ZachPruckowski|ZachPruckowski]] ([[User_talk:ZachPruckowski|Speak to me]]) 22:46, 9 April 2007 (CDT)
== Appoval of Linux article? ==
I see that you've expfressed some concerns over the first section, so I wanted to check with you before starting the approval process. [[User:Greg Woodhouse|Greg Woodhouse]] 21:04, 11 April 2007 (CDT)
== Meaning of approval ==
When an article is approved, that version is frozen, and new draft page is created to handle work on the next version. It is also expected that it will be in publishable form (see [[CZ:Approval Process]]). Yes, I agree that the people developing these articles are pushing hard for approval (and I don't mean that in the negative sense of the word), perhaps prematurely. But I saw the call for approval, so I thought I should start looking at it. [[User:Greg Woodhouse|Greg Woodhouse]] 21:22, 11 April 2007 (CDT)
== Byte ==
Pat,
Great job with the [[byte]] article! I've been at a loss of what to do with that one. :-) --[[User:Joshua David Williams|Joshua David Williams]] 20:36, 23 April 2007 (CDT)
== Do me a favor ==
Pat, would you do me a favor as I check the "from wikipedia" checkbox for users?  Would you please recheck the box on [[Computer]] - making sure to make a small edit (or it won't stay)- and then save it.  After that, would you take it back off again - making sure to make a small edit again.  Let me know if it works now.  Thanks! --[[User:D. Matt Innis|Matt Innis]] [[User talk:D. Matt Innis|(Talk)]] 21:09, 23 April 2007 (CDT)
Good job!  It's a bug that still needs to be fixed.  If you see anyone else having this problem, do let them know to make a small edit and that should be able to work around it.  Looking forward to seeing your continued good work!  If you ever need a constable, you know where to find me;) --[[User:D.

Unix-like

Yes, I've had the pleasure of working with several variants of Unix in the past, actually. Thanks for the note, though :-) --Joshua David Williams 21:41, 23 April 2007 (CDT)

Your JIT image

Pat, what did you create

JITcompilation.jpg

with? It looks a lot more professional than my

Java diagram.png

. I'm running Linux, and the closest thing I've found to making professional-looking diagrams is maybe OpenOffice Draw. Eric M Gearhart

Re: "He he. That thing is a patchwork."
Yes mine is too unfortunately. I started work on it during a slow shift at work with MS Paint (when every link we monitor is green it gets boring in Iraq...) and finished it in the KDE equivalent of paint, Kolourpaint. It's a big hack too unfortunately. I will try my hand at recreating it in maybe OO.o draw or GIMP or something. Also I'd like to add more descriptive icons to each layer, such as Tux on the OS layer, Duke on the Java layer and something that represents "programs" on the "Actual Java Program" layer.
In reference to Paint Shop Pro, I've read about Paint.NET, which is an open source "better Paint than Paint." Have you tried it? If I can I'll try and get it working in Mono on Linux :/ Eric M Gearhart
