As you all know I have used a lot of Windows Os's, we talking about from 95 to Vista, etc. In the past I have tried Linux and at times made great progress, however I have never had a reason to really pursue it. Until recently when after reading certain articles about Microsoft I feel disgusted, not only at the anti competitive behavior but also wasting money on Windows Vista.
I have always preferred Debian based distros, heck I love "apt-get" and had try and goes with Ubuntu. I installed Ubuntu 8.04 x64 a few days ago but had problems with it, until a few days ago I thought perhaps I should install the regular 32bit version.
After spending countless hours modding it etc, I am starting to really love it. Ok the sound is still an issue for me but I shall make a plan. I use Virtual Box to run XP, the only thing I run on XP is mxit for the PC. If I could run that on Linux I would.
After trying Linux for many years I feel Ubuntu 8.04 is getting linux to where it should be, user friendly
