Notes:

Tyler contacted me again via MSN just after sign-off & mentioned that he was calling from Sudbury. I will have to remember to ask more questions when I take calls. I didn't get a lot of call-in experience with Episode #1

Having reviewed the video after the show, the problem with the PClinuxOS install actually occurred during the installation (you see a few red errors just before I reboot). Due to the fact that we were live on the air, I didn't bother to fix it, but I have fixed it now (after sign-off), and am ready to proceed with the show next Tuesday, where we will be introducing virtualization.
