yo~, i thought i might share my experience with linux with u all here.
started by DLing 650MB iso ... burned it on CD, then i put the CD in the PC and started the Live CD way [running whole OS from CD].
i was shocked 6ab3an! ubuntu linux ta3arraf 3ala every damn piece in the PC ... even the PCI wireless card!! o men awal ma eshta'3al i heared the welcome sound [ta3araf 3ala el sound].
next i found 2 things on desktop, folder esma Examples kan feeh examples of some multimedia files like an ogg movie, ogg sound, some png and jpgs.
next i thought that i should check for the progs that come with the OS [lolpaint].
found every little thing that a normal computer user will ever need!! messenger, firefox, office, cham game, photo shop, movie maker and alot more.
the biggest shock was the OS installation, which was the other thing on the desktop, after i clicked it gal ley choose language [full support for arabic is here (tested)], then timezone and arrange partitions, ba3dain the big shock! it is installing linux while i was chatting with Sai on msn and browsing youtube!
the installation took about 10 mins and you can imagine how the CD died while running and installing OS.
the next stuff i will try is to test eshkether compatible with NTFS drives, and Wine.
