Hey, thanks for the visit there !

Woo hoo !!! This afternoon my mom took the package from the Mr. Postman. And gave it to me after I came back home from having lunch with Yeevon and Canice (will post that later
). Then I immediately take a picture of the package.
I thought it would never arrive. Took them so long. I’ve been waited for so long for this to arrive. They wrapped up with those plastic with those air bubbles in it (I forgotten what does it call
). Even with those wrappers on, what I get is not in perfect condition. Anyway, most important is that the CD can be able to read. SO what’s inside?
I’ve ordered 2 CDs (1 for me and 1 for someone who is interested of having it). They also gave me Ubuntu’s stickers. I guess I’ll have to use Linux if I’m a human being. Ok, first of all, I’m not a good reviewer. And actually I just use the Live CD startup, which means demo. Here are some of the cool features they have.
Moving window effect. When you’re dragging the window, it has some effect like you’re holding a paper and move around
. When you close the window, it will not just close like any Windows OS (except Windows Vista). It will fade away to the bottom.
This is actually a “Windows Key + Tab” effect. Windows Vista has this function too but Windows Vista is like a file-sorting-like version. But this is like the Mac OS X Leopard. It shows all the windows or applications you have open and you can choose which you want to see or use. It looks better if you find the windows you need than looking at your taskbar and see your application’s name in word forms
.
Here are the list of games are inside Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon. The games that I really like inside was the Sudoku, Chess, Blackjack and Mahjongg.
I love playing Sudoku. It’s my favourite that I play it almost everyday (except Sunday because TheStar Newspaper don’t have
) There are few other games that I like too. I really wanted to transfer some of the games from there to my Windows XP. Too bad we can’t or should I say, I don’t know how
.
I was using their free Pidgin Instant Messenger. This is actually a multi-protocol instant messaging client, which means you can use AIM, MSN, Yahoo and so on to chat. There are many free software builded inside like Firefox web browser, GIMP image editing tool, OpenOffice word processing tools and many more other useful tools.
I wanted to edit those image using GIMP, but turns out that I’m still new to the software. I will try it out next time. I don’t know whether I should or should not install. Hmm, hard decision. Anyway, that’s all for now, peace out.

nice… I am going to download it now…
Haha, if you want I can give you the CD since I got 1 more extra. If only you’re in PJ area

O_o…
I first heard about Ubuntu from my brother. He called it a ‘free’ operating system that was virus proof.
Thinking it was ‘free’, I thought it was some crappy looking operating system designed by some dumb programmer. Looking at the pictures above, I’ve change my mind COMPLETELY.
IT LOOKS DROP DEAD GORGEOUS. Even better than Apple’s operating system! XD
Thanks for enlightening me on Ubuntu. I’m off to read more about it. =D
Haha, it is good, but if you’re not firmiliar with the OS, then it should be hard. But ofcourse everything has a start.
Nah, it’s not hard, it’s much easier than windows unless you have some peculiar hardware, and installation is a breeze. Plus you will get much better performance out of any machine, even older ones that aren’t even capable of running Windows reasonably. If you need any help or advice, just ask, I’ve been running Ubuntu exclusively for 2 or 3 years now, and Linux in general for 6 or 7 years.
I know, it takes time for me to learn as I’ve use it not even a month including past years
