Specific tips/fun stuff
}}
 * Virtual Network Computing (VNC) can be used to access your computer from anywhere if it's connected to the Internet and you know its IP address (use ifconfig). vnc-java can automatically create a webpage with a Java applet that eliminates the need for a VNC client.  Try using x11-vnc
 * for remote X you can also use simply X with xhost as X is a network protocol, or you can do X forwarding with ssh.
 * WINE will often run your old Windows programs very well. It's hit and miss, but often more complex, graphics-heavy applications will work better than specifically integrated Windows apps.
 * There are a number of unique, nicely-made open source games that run under Linux:
 * Battle for Wesnoth (turn-based strategy game with elements from RPGs) http://www.wesnoth.org
 * Blob Wars (platform shoot-em-up)

 * Enigma (marble-rolling puzzle game) http://www.nongnu.org/enigma
 * GnuGo (one of the better Go AIs available, use ccGo or JaGo or cGoban for a user interface) http://www.gnu.org/software/gnugo/gnugo.html
 * Frozen Bubble (similar to Bust-a-Move) http://www.frozen-bubble.org/
