I've been using Microsoft for all my life on the computer. I just got Vista and it has been nice, but starting college soon and I wanted something really simple just for schoolwork (i.e. writing papers and researching).
I just got wi-fi to work (I'm using Ubuntu right now, it took me about 1 hour to finally configure and get the Broadcom BCM driver) and I just got the screen resolution larger than just 800x600 (the default size that was the only option until I did some updates)
Now, as a first time user of Ubuntu, Linux in general, what should I do? Is there anything I need to install that will help or download? Security issues in Ubuntu? I'm reading over the newbie guide for this, but I would also like some direct replies to this (I like Yahoo! Answers). In addition, what are some pretty cool, funky ways to customize Ubuntu?
Thanks in advance!
