I had been under the impression that this version of the site had a new, neat feature. When writing a post you only have to categorise it under its final child category. This, it turns out, is only true up to a (not very useful) point.
The move from my Sony Clie to my Asus eee PC 900 meant leaving behind some old friends: applications that I had used on a daily basis. Some of them, like the Suduko program, were replaced easily enough. Not all of them were so easy, however.
I waited for a couple of months to see which programs I really missed, if any. It turned out that I missed Daynotez and SplashID. Neither had Linux versions, and neither would install under Wine. I therefore spent some time looking round for alternatives, and found several, some more suitable than others
This is an explanation of the reason for the existence of this page.
