well.........This is embarasing

 Kindly Disregard my last post. You may wonder why, It's because I moved from Ubuntu 11.04 to Linux mint 12, a distro based off of Ubuntu 11.10, This is embarrassing because right after moving to Ubuntu, I found myself buying the Linux mint 12 Cd, after purchasing the latest Version of the Linux mint Magazine. One try of the cd, and I was instantly hooked. Its flashy graphics wowed me, and its compatability with Ubuntu and Debian packages amazed me, also I will never move to Ubuntu 11.10, as I strongly dislike Unity.

     Linux mint 12 is simply put, What Debian will  never be, It supports Ubuntu, Debian, and with some mild tweaking Fedora apps, Also, You can access windows applications through a new, more secure wine appliucation, wine being a windows runtime enviroment for Linux. More simply, Mint 12=Amazing, which is why won't be hearing anymore from me on the Subject of operating systems, for a while at least.

The big move

 When you move, you remember the house you lived in before with fond memories, but usually agree, (If the move was not forced on you.) that the house/appartment/misc. you moved to is better. Well that's exactly how I feel after moving from windows to Ubuntu 11.04, officialy.

 Now, this may look like mac, but it's Ubuntu. Heavily modified, but Ubuntu nonetheless. I decided to move because for some while I had been running Ubuntu using Wubi, which I had installed in windows Xp (For more info see my first post.) So far, its been wonderful, but not without its turbulence, For one thing, the look is completely different than windows xp on unity, and still different on Ubuntu classic.
But this hasn't bothered me as much as the lack of cd or dvd software compatible with Ubuntu. This isn't as bad as you may think because the amount of software and other things the community has contributed to Ubuntu is amazing, I don't even think of  using microsoft word anymore, because there are literally hundreds of replacements. Now I can't really say that Ubuntu is neglected because it is one of the most popular linux flavor out there, but I can say this: Ubuntu is a great platform that needs more big companies to back it up.

  Anyway, back to the subject of moving, if you are having problems with your mac or windows computer, or just want to move to linux, try booting that linux off of a U.S.B or In a virtual machine
Because for a day to day use of word editting,listening to audio or browsing the internet, mac and windows are great too!
