Hello,

New Ubuntu user here. Just partitioned my hard drive and loaded the 
software today. Nice.

A friend told me about Ubuntu at a Christmas party after I was 
expressing concerns about what I was reading about Vista. I am not a 
programmer, network specialist, etc. Just a very good Windows/Office 
user who builds computers on the side.  So this will be a interesting 
experiment. It is very hard to turn away from my stable XP Pro 
environment. Decisions about which software to view and archive my 
numerous e-mail accounts, etc, are all up in the air. I guess it is like 
giving up a security blanket. Wait a minute, did I mention security and 
Windows in the same sentence?  Oops, sorry!
