Bye Bye Windows!

Hi! My name is Buddy. I've been an XP Pro fan for years.
I had a friend who deleted a major file in his windows OS and didn't have "the disc" to fix it.
I tried Knoppix and was able to fix his laptop.
Well, that was my first ever time in dealing with anything Linux. After that, I was facinated!
Checked out every Linus distro out there and finally picked Mint 14 - 64bit w/Cinnamon.
I've tried out the different desktops and keep going back to Cinnamon.
I dual booted but have only opened Windows 3 times in 3 weeks. It is so slow compared to Linux.
I am hooked for life!
I am using a 6 yr old Dell Vostro 1000 laptop with 500 gig hard drive and 4 GB ram.
