I have been a Microsoft user for a majority of my life. I started out with a 66 megahertz computer running MS-DOS on a very fancy black and green monitor. However, I recently became a self-proclaimed Linux lover. For those of you who might not know, Linux is an open source operating system that competes with Microsoft Windows and Apple's OS X. My first experience with Linux left me with a bad taste in my mouth, but the distribution of Linux known as Ubuntu 7.10 (aka 'Gutsy Gibbon' ), the version prior to the current version of Ubuntu, has impressed me enough to convince me to completely switch my personal computer to Linux. Ithas been a fascinating adventure, and I've learned a lot about the inner workings of my computer.
