New to Linux & Mint user (after a few false starts)
Posted: Tue Nov 20, 2012 9:12 pm
Hi everyone, glad to be here!
I'm quite new to Linux, and brand new to Linux Mint, and I'm very much enjoying myself, rediscovering my love of computing.
I've tried out Linux of various flavours a few times over the years, but ended up getting frustrated with not being able to get things working, and struggling to free myself from a Windows mindset.
However, this time, it's been nothing but a pleasure, and Linux Mint has given me the enjoyable, relaxed introduction I needed.
Since installing Mint, I've also added partitions for Ubuntu Studio, Manjaro and Fedora to tinker with... but Mint is the distro I keep booting into, the one that the rest of my family like using, and the one I'll be installing on my mum's laptop soon - yep, she's in her sixties, and even she's a convert!
Well done Linux Mint, keep up the good work.
