Taking a break from Windows

You know, Windows XP has never failed me. It runs smoothly and seldom crashes (some pieces of software, on the other hand…). However, upcoming Vista have gotten me a bit concerned so I’ve decided to venture into the open source Linux world yet again, not at all the nerdy command-line craziness it once was.

This is blogged with Firefox, running on Ubuntu Linux.

I’ll let you know how everything turns out.

  1. I switched to Ubuntu two months ago, and that was the best thing that has happened to my computer since I discovered Mosaic way back in 1996. Of course, finding the right programs to use instead of the ones you used on Windows isn’t too easy - I’d recommend Akregator for reading feeds, and Kopete for instant messaging.
