Sounds great. My copy of Ubuntu should be coming in tomorrow. Now, I just have to try getting rid of Xandros when that arrives. Even tho Xandros was nice, it's time to reformat my partition, and transition from an okay Linux system to a GREAT Linux system. I even gave SUSE an opportunity, but unfortunately, Novell didn't even want to install right, neither did Red Hat Fedora. I guess the little guy's distros far outdo the big guys out there. I can only imagine that those big egomaniacs are really feeling jealous about some of these little distros doing so well.
Now, if I were to build my own Linux-based OS, I'd probably model my version of Linux around the Mac OS X style layout, not Windows like everyone else. To me, Mac's GUI's far superior to the MS layout in every way. I just happen to love that pull-down menu and the hotlink graphics that scroll on the bottom of the screen. I only wish that Linux would start to be like Apple's OS (of course, if Mac OS X were legal to install, I would've done so a looong time ago). I think that Ubuntu takes after this style fairly well, seeing those screenshots on their website. Then again, their "Windows" still looks like the M$ style, but I'll have to make do with that.
