oh... i prefer simple style... i wonder if i want to try ubuntu, can i install new software?? or i can only use default softwares that built in?

yes u can install new software, basic stuffs u can check out the Synaptic Manager(with admin right), that's the general list of software available, the nice thing about Synaptic Manager is that it will automatically sort out dependency issues for you, so that u don really have to know which package is required for which software.

by the way, Compiz is simple too, just adding a few effects to "wow" your usage experience, u can customize your effect, like when u minimize and open back, it's Zoom effect, and when u close a certain window, it will "burn" the window away, and have shadow with windows and stuff

erm, anyone been to mist club before?

Go to youtube , type ubuntu compiz

Have you seen MacOS X Expose and its 3d effects like wanna view all programs. Umm , what windows calls it , the windows + tab key. Cool Aero effect. Its something like combination of both for linux

Its really cool and it does not suck like Aero. It even works with older graphics card !

OSX just makes it easier to sniff , you need backtrack and willingness to learn and the right wifi adapter. Thats all

synaptic manager... okok, i will try both compiz and synaptic manager
sound very fancy i will try it

OMG!! MY UBUNTU DOWNLOAD FINISHED!!! now trying to burn into a cd

Use USB la, easier and can save CD ....

posting using ubuntu live cd now ^^ i find that firefox in ubuntu is snappier than windows even though i 'm in demo
@mia i dont have extra thumb drive

Soon you'll find Linux handles a lot of tasks faster and better then Windows.

Thats why I use OSX for normal day to day task and Windows for gaming and other things. Its cool , you should install it nevertheless and unleash the power

Oh wait , no antivirus. You can even open infected thumb drive ,edit documents and such !

Ubuntu is good for new user for Linux ...or maybe can try out the likes of Mint ...

Still, only use CD ma, not even a DVD ...so small in size

my HD4670 doesnt support in ubuntu default driver i find that ubuntu really try very hard to introduce their os to public, the installation is so much easier than windows(never try install windows b4 actually XD)

Try use this ----> http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linu...deon_linux.aspx

@mia will install when i decide to install ubuntu.
btw, i feel that ubuntu music player not as good as windows media player, what do u think?? it looks more like winamp and i dont like

Got various player Fan...Amarok, Banshee, Rhythmbox, Listen etc etc...just install all also can ...

Its just to make windows users more familar. Again if you dont like , download the skin making tool and customise your own skin. You dont worry about it. Hate the program , compile it yourself. Modify the OS according to what you like

There is no stupid Windows update or AV which or system protection which prevents you to interfere with it. Thats the beauty

i know but i expect the default 1(Rhythmbox) to good... anyway, for mouse scroll click, can i change it to windows style?? i always press the scroll then move my mouse to scroll or hold the scroll click and drag instead of dragging the side scroll on the window

sad, no ppl teach me proper install mac OSX, how to used that legacy software ? which hv a source to dl the legacy mac OSX. I dnt know how to modified it by myself T.T

Google is your best buddy on that. there are few tutorials and such. The beauty of linux is that there are tons of tutorials for it !

Buy retail OSX and well it works assuming if you have a compatible hardware
