Hi,

Against all recommendations on the 9front website I installed 9front
into a VM and lurked on this list for a while. But since I don't have a
lot of time to play I haven't really learned much yet.  I need to
actually use it, but I'm not sure where to start. What kind of work is
plan9 good at, or what are you people using it for?

Jared.

Stop telling me how to use my computer.
I will configure it how I want,
get updates when I want,
and run whatever _I_ want.

You don't keep a secret from the user.
