I am glad to see that you like LinuxMint. I got into Linux when I was given an UBuntu live disk.
I fell in love with:
1. The hundreds of free apps
2. The lack of viruses, spyware![]()
3. The speed of a light OS unlike XP
4. The amount of customization opportunities
5. The excellent stability of the system
