I am soooo happy!



I am really happy!
I got that Linux distribution installed in five minutes, did not even need
a reboot. Now , I have got a Linux pannel on the top of my screen, and my
usual Windows pannel at the bottom, I can start applications
simultatenuously and can cut and paste (only text) between Windows and
Linux! 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, network, everything where
there out of the box. 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. Indeed 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, I already love it!
