[nmglug] Windows Vista killswitch and switching to Linux

[Ted Pomeroy]

Tom & Others, I am happy with Ubuntu and its Gnome desktop and Mozilla Firrefox. The pachaged Open Office is a treat and does take a  while to load. I have learned to accect that. On the web, I am pleased with the Firevfox browser and detect no difference in speed from previous MS Windows experience.
 I am pleased to have made the move. 
If you want a run down of distros, TUX Magazine ran one several months ago and it might help. The great part of Linux is choice and freedom to make changes to suit yourself. My advice, dive in and really try to rely on the linux you choose. If you don't like it then you really can change in a few months to another edition an you will find the skills and knowledge very transferable. Heck, I still miss RedHat 8., but it is no longer supported and I thought it better to join a crowd. 
Just my thoughts, Ted Pomeroy
