For the longest time, I have been playing with various Linux distros by using LiveCD and never really sitting down and forcing myself to actually use Linux on an extended time. When a power supply failed on one computer I decided to take it pass the test drive. With a spare 20 gig hardrive, I decided just to unplug Windows and literally plug in Ubuntu version of Linux. No big deal since the other drives weren't even connected to the system so switching back was a simple matter.
Even reinstalling a familar system is daunting. Switching to a new OS even made by the same company intimidating. Ubuntu is not only a complete change in OS but interface. More Apple OS X than Windows. Not to menation not every program I use has a direct Linux port. I'm not just learning a whole new OS but everything at once.
Still I'm going with this cold turkey approach or I will never change over. I will be logging here my diary of the change over. Both good and ill. Michael Eh? 19:46, 21 September 2007 (EDT)
