The ability to login graphically into any computer from a remote location has a number of uses. In my case it allows me to create a setup were students in my school can easily login graphically into the universities computer lab and use many of the applications which are installed there

I work as the IT guy for a school. We run free software on all our computers. So far majority of our computing needs has been met by free software. ( all of them if we exclude matlab and some freedom hating multimedia codecs.) One area that has been quite shaky is a good tool that can be used for merging different pdf files into one. There is a tool called pdftk but its command-line and while i don't have a problem using it, its hardly the tool i want to recommend for our staffs and students, so when this morning i saw a dent on identi.ca about a tool called PDF-Shuffler which among other things provide an easy way to merge PDF files i decided to to Investigate.

So this month i decide to give my laptop an apple flavor, God knows how much i hate Macs and some element of their interface, like the lack of right click, most of all the lack of freedom and ownership it and every other proprietary Operating system makes me feel.
