Windows or Linux??

I just installed Linux on my home PC. I didn't use my regular Windows hard drive that I have because I didn't want to mess that up. I have a few spare hard drives from various computers hanging around so I took one of my 30 gig hard drives that I have and I installed Ubuntu Lnux which is based on the Debian release of Linux.

I'm probably very biased towards Windows because I know it so well and I can do plenty of functions in it already. Most of the programs that I have are made for Windows and they all run fine. I just decided to use Ubuntu Linux for a little bit to see how it is. I've tried other distributions before but this one doesn't seem too bad. The updates are pretty quick and they're free of course. The only problem I have is with some of the applications but I don't know how long I'll have to play with the thing. Right now I put my Windows hard drive back into my computer since it was just easier to use this right now and I'm playing a DVD. I was having trouble using my DVD player in Linux so I switched it back for now. We'll see how things go. I've also installed the KDE package in Ubuntu which I prefer to Gnome.

I'll report back later when I've had more time to mess around with Ubuntu and figure out how to install all the programs that I need to make it work like Windows XP.
