Windows 7 Gives Way to Ubuntu Netbook Remix

Posted by Ben Smith on Sun, Feb 28, 2010 @ 06:23 PM

Well, my days of the using the free Windows 7 Release Candidate are over...I hate getting messages telling me that my computers going to shut down if I don't give M$ some money.

Looking back on my time with Windows 7 on my Acer Aspire One, I must say that I was very pleased with Microsoft's offering this time around!  I would suggest that anyone wanting to stay on Microsoft who already has a netbook running XP: Go for it!  I had no problems with the RC for the 6 or so months that I used it.  Windows 7 was so great that I actually upgraded my wife's Gateway laptop and my work laptop to the full version of 7. (It helps that my wife has a .edu address so she could purchase her Win7 license at a great price.)

Now on to Ubuntu Netbook Remix!  It was a really easy install and almost everything works!  Take a look:

I'll tell you more about it later.  Any specific questions you want answered, just put them in the comments!
