Downloading Ubuntu as I type this. 54 minutes 11 seconds remaining.

I’m pushing my data out to an external hard drive.

I will definitely let you know how this runs.

Before the comments turn into an OS flame war, I just want to say that I’ve run all of these operating systems one time or another in my life:

  • Mac OS 9
  • Mac OS X
  • Red Hat
  • SUSE
  • Free BSD
  • Ubuntu
  • Kubuntu
  • Xubuntu
  • Be OS
  • Arc
  • Slackware
  • Debian
  • Gentoo
  • Linspire
  • Mandriva
  • Solaris
  • Damn Small Linux
  • Windows 95
  • Windows 98
  • Windows 2000
  • Windows XP
  • Windows Vista

What can I say? I like to play.

    So tired of ubuntu i am! Cant get it to work and support in forums in alot of jargon like “get apt noapic nosmp” with info on how to do those things. i wanted to try it, i was looking forward to it but i’m just frustrated and its eating into my work time.

    now i have a 21GB partition taking up space and Grub screwing up my boot screen. The later makes it hard to leave the computer to reboot without it going to a dead ubuntu boot up.

    sigh …… i’ll try the alternates and see what happens.
