I am happy!



yes, I am really happy.
I have got this version of Linux installed just in a few minutes, did not
even need a reboot! I have a Linux panel on the top of my screen, and a
Windows panel at the bottom. Wow!

Everything ran out of the box, even my beloved dictation software for
windows dictates directly into my Linux newsreader!. I am absolutely
baffled! I did not need to install or fiddle with any driver, sound,
wheelmouse, dual-headed Intel graphics cards with 1440x1050, network,
everything where there out of the box (stolen from Windows, but who
cares?).

You can even cut and paste (only text) between Windows and Linux

No dual-boot, no repartitioning is required, you can access NTFS
partitions without restriction.

Admittedly, it is not yet
absolutely stable, the security does not seem to be the main focus yet
(you do run as root and no user management is provided out of the box) ,
currently you have to retrofit a filemanager from Synaptics, but also that
was done in minutes. But you can't do much wrong, if your scrap your
system it will not damage the windows host, and it will be reinstalled in
minutes.

andLinux (another Ubuntu derivate) is still pre-Beta, but it is really
promising!
