OK, ok… Geek alert!

Well wannabe anyway. I am attempting something pretty stupid, by now it’s probably too late to do anything about it, but who cares!

I hate MS Windows! So about a couple of months ago I attempted a Linux install. I have tried this out before using Red Hat, SUSE & Mandrake, but failed dismally. I either couldn’t connect to our wireless router or my NVIDIA drivers were screwed and made the whole system hang. But I got over this with an install of Fedora 3. Life was quiet.

Now, I have just updated to Fedora 4 (test 3). I haven’t even rebooted yet (I’m writing this from WinXP). But only now can I remember how hard it was to get the system up and running those two months ago…! Not only that, but this version is only a test version, at the beginning of the install I was greeted by a splash screen advising me where to log bugs! Shit!

And so I whish myself luck, and pat myself on the back, as only a bold Linux newbie should. I hope to see you on the other side!
