I wouldn't say weird but its certainly something different to what your used to, new learning curve, I haven't looked back since switching, I don't even have windows on my main PC anymore, the laptop I have but rarely use has XP on it, I booted it up this week and it told me the anti-virus was out of date, 15-10-2008 when I last updated it, and that was the last time it was used

well the first time i didn't like it but i needed to reinstall my system again and tried ubuntu again. Wow loving it this time around, now that i have made a friend online that showed me a few things and got me going(via teamviewer)

I Love the 3D desktop!

thanks entwisi for recommending it. I can't see myself going back to windows now (well only to play FPS games)
