Windows pr0 to Linux newb; Making the switch.
June 4th, 2008Many years ago a friend (who is now my housemate) introduced me to Linux, since then i've attempted to move to Linux as my desktop OS quite a few times. I tried many different distributions, with the longest lasting stint, until recently, being on Fedora Core 5.
It's been speculated that someone like myself, who has extensive knowledge of both using and troubleshooting Windows, is going to have more issues than most people making the switch to Linux.
I was used to being extremely capable on my computer, to suddenly be a 'newb' again was not easy, and had me returning to Windows time and time again.
