Tarbuck knot for bundles or loops. Works well using small nylon cord. Slide knot to tighten it.

I might be able to do some kind of wild triple-boot with my new rig. Now I get to go back to what I avoided for x years, the wild questions of distro and version and ... stuff.
Why complicate things? I suggest you save your money and get a basic box with no hard drive and external USB for everything. A reasonably good motherboard like an ASUS AMD and a fair processor like an AM3+ and about 16 GB RAM should set you back about $275.00 and you can work with anything in RAM from DVD or USB. Lots of help is available, depending on what you want to do. Check out live distributions on distrowatch.com and the KaOS approach is great.

I hope the article doesn't say 'GIMP is as good as photoshop' or 'Libre Office is as good as Office',
I liked photoshop but have an early edition. For what I do, Krita is best. I like Publisher but it can't
hold a candle to WordPerfect, not just on power but also on ease of use and reliability.

Another way, on the remote chance that you use Wordperfect, is to download the macro named, "Clipper". It has the option to set either one or two HRt and save it to a separate file at the end of the current document.
