My first Linux experience: Overwhelmingly positive.

| I am totally satisfied with my Linux experience to this point.
| What these computers lack in power, they make up for in simplicity
| and ease of use. None has crashed, either. It seems to me that
| Linux is a viable solution for any educator with old, seemingly
| useless computers, and administrators shackled down by exorbitant
| licensing costs of running OS X or Windows on dozens or hundreds
| of machines ought to consider it as an alternative.

| a lot of stuff related to the IT systems that I would need in my
| setup for development, deployment and maintenance purposes. A
| colleague suggested I give Linux a shot and suggested the Kubuntu
| distro. So thats how it got started. I have been using this for the
| last 4 months and surprisingly, I have not really felt the need to
| go back to Windows at all (except to use the Wall Street Analyzer
| which doesn't work well with Wine) !!
