I first tried Linux about 5 years ago, I tried Red Hat and it took me four to install and that's with the aid of a second pc that had internet access to look up the errors I was getting. This turned me off Linux for years. Last summer I tried Ubuntu and I was pleasantly surprised. It installed without any issues and in under twenty minutes. Consider trying a different version.

I am in no way an expert but if I spend another months or so using Linux; I doubt I will use any Microsoft OS for anything other than gaming. I am sticking with Ubuntu mainly because of the support I can rely on.

Here's some stuff for you. 1. Beads are awesome. Be grateful for your beads. Some people like ME work hard to get our beads on Mardi Gras. When I'm finished, I can barely keep my neck up because it's weighted down with beads! 2. Yes, tips are awesome. 3. Have you tried the Gumbo or Crawfish? They're DELICIOUS! I haven't had any in ages since I moved to Georgia. 4. My thoughts on Katrina? No comment... I was born and raised in New Orleans. Here’s some stuff for you.
