The New Year Linux Resolution: Switching to Linux for a Week

[ Thanks to Harold for this link. ]

"At the Ubuntu site I found a cute logo that looks kind of like a red, yellow and orange gun barrel pointing at my eyes. Later on, while eating my lunch, I would realize that it was actually representative of three people holding hands, presumably to keep each other from running away to a Mac or XP operating system.

"My goal is to do this as painlessly as possible, so I hurriedly look for a copy of the OS and blissfully ignore anything that looks like a guide or set of instructions. I find a download location, and it turns out the downloading things is pretty easy. (You click on the button that says "download.") So that's one point for Ubuntu; good job on making use of basic http protocol, Ubuntu!"
