Greetings from the Netherlands!

[Rado]

Hi all,

Before I say anything about myself, I would like to express my gratitude to the creators and developers of Linux Mint.
You guys are just awesome

Now then, let me introduce myself.
I am Marko from the Netherlands and am currently a student at a university.
The reason why I wandered in the world of Linux, is that since I use my computer primarily for Uni work, I wanted a good-looking and "good-performing" alternative to Windows (without all the unnecessary extras you get with Windows 7).
Next to studying I also spend some time in learning the language of C++.

Well that's for the introduction ---> now let me post my first (sound) problem under the Newbie heading

Hallo Marko, welkom op de Linux Mint forums Thanks for giving Linux Mint a try and I hope you continue to enjoy using it!

Be sure also to check out the Community website (ideas, tutorials, and hardware and software reviews), and the Cinnamon Spices website for adding themes, applets and extensions to Cinnamon (and if you haven't installed Cinnamon, see here the most recent update for a teaser).

You can also chat in real-time with other Linux Mint users. In the Mint Menu, in the Internet section, start the application XChat IRC. You will automatically get connected to #linuxmint-chat for general chat and #linuxmint-help for support with other Linux Mint users
