Did I mention I’m diggin’ Ubuntu? While I haven’t seen to many distros, I would guess that this one is the most Windows-user friendly of the bunch.
Don’t get me wrong, I like Mandriva. There were just way too many options. It was daunting and confusing. Ubuntu is still slightly confusing, but in a more comfortable way.
For example; I wanted to install Mozilla Thunderbird for mail. There is already a Ubuntu build available in the package manager. I want it to be my default email client? 3 clicks (that were easy to find) and I’m all set. So, all of my email accounts have been loaded as have all of my RSS feeds.
Sound works, but it would seem the players that came with only will import using OGG/Vorbis. Since I don’t ever comment on /., I think I’ll have to find a way to do mp3′s.
Still have to get access the 2nd drive in this machine, and setup networking so I can print, but I think I’ll have that done today.
Perhaps an entire week of no Windows is in order, where possible of course
