Hello from yet another newbie!

Hello

I have just this minute finished installing Breezy 5.10 onto my ageing Toshiba latop and already feel a sense of joy at waving goodbye to the evil microsoft empire's *******... platform. Shoulda done it a long time ago ;)

I have had a fair amount of experience using unix at Uni - but now I am running Ubuntu with the J2SE 5.0 SDK and Netbeans, GCC Compiler, Open Office and Firefox. What more could I want??!!

Holiday greetings to all

I recently installed it on my gateway laptop and am loving it. Ubuntu and auto installer gives you almost everything you need. It is great. highly recommend it...two thumbs up! :D

Happy holidays to you too! :)
