    Yes, I want to do all that!  I am confined by the time constraints for the episodes.  So think of these beginning segments as pilots.  I'm trying to smash a lot of information in to these shorts, so I'm glossing over so much.

     

    Also I don't do the editing.  Max does the editing, and it takes him a great deal of time just for one 20 minute segment of "The Ben Hech Show".  Adding on a three to eight minute "sudo Sergeant" is more of a stretch for the production team than we anticipated.  As we go on there will be refinements to the series, and I can go back and revisit topics I have not gone too in depth with.

     

    Thanks!

    I've never worked with a Chip, but when I have an opportunity I'll check it out, and let you know if I learn anything about it.

    I will always say Arch Linux, but then again that is just because I am a fan of that distribution.  I'm sure many people would argue that is a poor choice.  I try and incorporate Arch Linux into everything.  I was just installing Arch onto a Raspberry Pi for a future project to do some experiments.

    Totally - that is what got me into Linux!  Ms. Corbille and I have already been planning to do just that.  Thing is we have a lot to do around the shop each week to get all of our videos put together, so we are trying to find a way to work it into our schedule.

    That's a great idea! Thanks for the input. I'll pass the idea on.
