Now Dual Booting

Ok after being on strictly Ubuntu for 5 months I realized that I really needed to have a Windows partition for quite a few things still. I had attempted numerous times to get things that were Windows based running under Wine with no avail.

Returned to Ubuntu

Ok I quit KDE like a bad habit and went back to GNOME. I like GNOME and most of the tutorials for Ubuntu are based in it so I am going to keep using that.

KDE is visually stunning, but for me there is a few things I cannot use with it. Like UbuntuTweak.

I have been working with the GNOME interface more and I have my desktop the way I like it. I even have my girlfriend using my laptop from time to time and she’s not as scared of Linux as she used to be.

That’s really all I have to report at this time…
