After a super long break, We return with a smaller than usual crew, but with special guest <A HREF="http://mandrake.net/">Geoff "Mandrake" Harrison</A>. We talk about KDE/Debian issues, price changing, GPG vs. PGP and more. We don't know when our next episode will be, so savor this one, and find it at <A HREF="http://www.thesync.com/geeks/">TheSync</A>.

Geeks in space is on an indefinite hiatus while we sort out the (ahem) issues surrounding continuing production while we are located in 3 cities and 2 time zones. Since Hemos's wedding and move to boston, and Nate's move to california to continue work on Everything 2, that leaves CowboyNeal and I all by ourselves. When we figure out a good way to continue the show, we will. If you have solutions, let us know. Perhaps now is the time to start streaming and switch to a live broadcast with an IRC simulcast. But we're still thinkin'

In <A href="http://www.thesync.com/geeks/">this week's episode</A>, we're back from the office move to discuss Microsoft buying Bungie, the new release of GNUCash, stupid processor naming schemes, the BT hyperlink patent, and more. This might be the last episode for awhile, as the Mackie (our mixing console) broke and I just shipped it back for repairs, so hang tight while we get it fixed.

In <A href="http://www.thesync.com/geeks/">this week's episode</A> we talk about the AMD Thunderbird, the "opening" of the Playstation 2, and not much else. (except for the ever-impending Krull invasion) If you've got a high tolerance for pain, give it a listen.

Back from our trip to Boston, we return with a <A href="http://www.thesync.com/geeks/">brand-spanking-new episode</A>. Nate was gone working on <A href="http://www.everything2.com/">Everything2</A>, but that didn't stop us from discussing the new Slash code release, efm, web crawlers, GNOME 1.2, and more.
