Hello all!

Post by Michaeln »

Hi,

As a lifelong devotee of MS Windows I decided to take the plunge and I installed LinuxMint 11 Katya 64bit on a desktop. I am a /COMPLETE/ novice and having encountered my first problem with wifi driver installation, and subsequent solution (provided by remoulder) in this forum I must say that I am /VERY/ impressed with this distro. I initially felt that I was too old to start learning a new OS but I am now looking forward to the challenge.

Keep up the great work.


Michael
