Approaching Normal is the personal site of Larry Wright, a 30-something technologist. I live in the town of Normal, Illinois with my wife and three children.
I have diverse interests, including Ruby on Rails, Agile development methodologies, design, and entrepeneurship. You'll find a little bit of everything here, but mostly technology and business stuff.
The opinions expressed here are mine alone, and not those of any employer - past or present.

I use a Centrino Duo 1.6 powered 15.4” HP laptop with ubuntu 7.10. Ubuntu is the best platform for development for me (currently I’m developing in PHP and Java).
Ubuntu Gutsy on a Dell Latitude D830.
I just love the OS for the command-line power and excellent free software repositories.
Samsung R40 – the best one for me!
