Okay, so, I have a PC laptop that I never use due to the registry of its Windows getting crazy infected a few years ago and it never really bounced back even after it got "fixed"... it decided the copy of XP I had on it was fake and I just didn't want to bother with it, so I stuck with my Mac. Anyway, I'm going to have a few days of a lot of time on my hands, and I want to get Windows off and Linux on. I'm going to do that before the few days so I have plenty of time to tweak things/begin to get a grasp, but I would really appreciate some advice on where to start. I was thinking Ubuntu?
