Anyone using something different than Windows?
Are the others much different in how to use?
Linux ubuntu is worth a try and I doubt that you will notice any difference between it and windows. Well except got being much faster and using less resources. The best way to try it is to go to the bookstore and buy a copy of format which will have a dvd with the operating system and lots of programs. By dropping the disk in the drive it will load and setup your internet, printer, etc and operate from memory so the more memory you have the better. If you like what you see you can choose to install frtom the icon. If you dont like it, just remove the disk and reboot as it makes no changes to your system. Good luck and enjoy.
