Hey!
Sooo, I'm really sick of Vista being super slow and all the problems it has. All the comps at the lab I work in are Macs, and I like those waaaay better. So can anyone help me switch from Vista to Linux? I don't really know how the hardcore computer system stuff works, but I can follow directions lol. And I was wondering if it'll like erase my stuff...like all my files, music, applications, etc. And I have the newest Microsoft office..is that compatible with Linux? I don't know much about it. |
