I’m still getting used to linux, but from what I have seen so far it is working wonders for me. I have had some problems, as I knew I would, but getting into Open-Source software is, in my opinion, a smart move. It was for me. I installed Ubuntu onto my old laptop with 128MB of RAM and it is still running great. Plus, it’s free!

I don’t know why I didn’t find out about Gmail earlier than I did. It is probably the best decision I’ve ever made. Extremely fast and easy to use, perfect for my cell phone, too. I love it and will never go back to using Hotmail unless it’s for MSN.
