Testing: Linux
Posted by
Nichole "Nikki" Warren
This post is really just for me to test Linux. I'm thinking about getting rid of Windows for Linux. However before I make the decision I wanted to test some things out on Linux. This concludes my test. Thanks
I don't know if there is away for you to test it before you actually have it. I was able to test it because we have his and her laptops. DH had loaded linux onto his laptop as a way to totally get rid of Vista. He just hated Vista. I after seeing his laptop with the new OS (operating system): Linux; asked him some more questions about it and asked him if this or that would work on it. He was willing to let me use his laptop as the "tester" to see if all my stuff would work with linux.
Over all I was pleased. There have a been a view things that I have had to give up, like the kids games. However linux has it's own games that are FREE and they really do compare to what the kids are using, now. So it wasn't a horrible trade off.
If you are interested in getting the free CD, then you need to go here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu Towards the bottom of the page you'll see the section that will allow you to make a CD request. The CD is free, but it can take up to 10 weeks to get it.
let me know how it goes, a friend was talking to me about it. She moved and we never finished talking about it
