    Re: The thrill is gone (Mac)

    Windows is okay, I still like my iMac (gave it to my wife though) but I just love my Ubuntu laptop. I can't explain why, I just do and have for years now.

    Re: has anyone here worked for geek squad?

    A job is a job and entry level at Geek Squad may not be the best but it IS a job that pays and gives you SOME work experience. Surviving retail is a badge of honor in my book.

    Re: Introduce a friend to Ubuntu day.

    Re: Will there be an Ubuntu tablet?

    Hmm. An Ubuntu tablet. Not a bad way to get Linux out to the masses. Limited hardware with a locked down OS. Not very open source but very practical.

    Re: Introduce a friend to Ubuntu day.

    Darn good idea. I'm going to give my old desktop PC with 10.04 on it to my nephew to mess around with. He loves computers and asked what Linux was on Christmas. He'll at least learn something new.
