Welcome to Linux (Ubuntu)
I am starting this blog to document all of my struggles (which eventually become joys) that I experience with Linux. I hope to provide solutions to people experiencing the same problems as I am because as we all know with Linux, not everything is up and ready and it can be a pain to get it up and running, but with some elbow grease and some ramming your head against a brick wall, it will work and it's worth it.
I use Ubuntu at work(mostly) and a combo of Ubuntu and Windows 7 at home. If you've invented something that can beat Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Gaming, Application etc, let me know and I will stop using Windows 7. Open office doesn't do it.
For those that are interested I use:
Ubuntu 10.4 - I tried 11.4 and didn't like it, my laptop is not a mobile phone and I personally found it annoying.
