The change to Ubuntu.
I have been using the Windows 7 RC as my main OS on my main computer for a while now (NOT advised… do NOT do that). It was going good though until Windows 7 decided to check for problems on my hard drive. Doesn’t sound too bad does it? Well it turned out not be… so Windows 7 decided to make a problem, by deleting a critical system file. I couldn’t boot up Windows 7 and use my computer any more… not to worry I could still back up my files thanks to wonderful Linux (Puppy Dog Linux 
).
So now instead of trying to reinstall Windows 7, I installed my copy of Ubuntu. The decision was mainly made by the fact that more games could be played on Linux (The Sims 3! ). So now I am enjoying my computer through the awesomeness that is Ubuntu.
(Just so you know, YES I was plugging Ubuntu and Linux, and hey I don’t care that I was. Mainly because Linux is “free”)
UPDATE
Not only do my Windows games and apps work on Ubuntu, I just found out to customize it appearance-wise and it is just awesome. I will get a video or some screenshots up of certain elements of the customized Ubuntu interface. By the way, this isn’t your massive “Make you Windows XP look like Vista/Seven” customizations it just tiny little adjustments that have crazy good results.

Hey congratulations. I think Linux rocks and you will enjoy it more if you discover more things you can do with it like game streaming to a PSP. I was able to stream games from my Linux box to my kids PSP. Wanna see it? Here it is.
