- Previous experience with Slackware, Redhat, and Suse distributions on older, slow machines (i.e. 486 vintage,4-8 meg ram)
- Continued frustration with Win-doze and associated problems (spyware, viruses, sluggish performance) have driven me back to Linux
- Having newly discovered Ubuntu I am overjoyed and anxious to rekindle my enthusiasm for Linux
Desire to start a Local Community Team in Cincinnati, OH area and proliferate/advocate Ubuntu to friends & family
My current setup: Compaq Presario 2100US laptop with 40 MB HD/256MB ram running Win-doze XP home (pre-installed for me at purchase)
Upgrade path:
- Purchased Western digital 80GB drive/1 Gig ram
- Plan to install Ubuntu Breezy Badger 5.10 onto new HD
- Will save old HD with XP OS and transfer data as needed
Future plans:
Purchase PowerBook laptop with OSX
- Contemplating dual boot setup (OSX/Ubuntu) for this future machine
