As a long-time Microsoft Windows user, here are my impressions of Linux so far.
Last night I got a virus in Windows 7 and Windows Defender came on and told me it would clean it if I paid. I thought wtf and instead of trying to get out of it (was too sleepy to bother) I just turned the computer off and booted up Ubuntu Linux Lucid Lynx 10.04. I never really use it. I installed it last year because I read it had cool video, music-editing and photoshop programs.
Anyway, I noticed that I had this set this OS up with some kind of add-on that makes everything look like Windows 7. I think it's called Wine. I've already forgot what Ubuntu is supposed to look like. I know the 'start menu' bar is supposed to be at the top. I really like how the windows do a wobbly effect. The rolled up windows was annoying at first but now I'm starting to appreciate it because it's like rolling up the blinds of a window.
My xenforo forum main page looks weird when logged in but xenforo's mainpage looks okay when logged in in Firefox 3.6 I tried using Konqueror but pages load to slow. I have no idea how to upgrade firefox from 3.6 something to the latest version. I downloaded the latest version but I don't know how to install it. I'm seriously going to need a manual for this OS. Not sure where I should even start. I'm downloading Google Chrome.
