Ubuntu CD's came in!
After about a month (fairly quick I guess since they are free) 5 cds came to my door. Will throw one in this weekend and try it out.

Hey firestorm,

I just received my Ubuntu CD's in the mail. It took 6 weeks for them to get here. There are 2 CD's in the set. If you want "fool" around with Ubuntu.....go into your "BIO's" and switch the order of "start-up" or "booting order" from "hard drive" first to CD...1st. Before shutting down your PC...insert the "LIVE" CD. Then restart your PC. The Ubuntu will load up without putting any files on your HD. !!

Have fun

Howdy!

A month is no time at all for something free! I imagine there's quite a backlog for those thangs.

How did you guys decided on the Ubuntu version over any of the other ones out there??

Thanks!

Lyte

I am going to try it to see if it is a good starter version for others. I personally like Fedora the best though .
Thanks for the info Dr.911, I've done that enough times to do it in my sleep now .
