hello everyone.

i am a student at a university in ohio, and to be honest i dislike online chatrooms etc, but i am not a microsoft windows fantaic. i have been using various systems and doing work on other platforms and really believe that the real field of computing lies elsewhere

my idea was to see if i could perhaps find others online that shared my views, others who could discause unix and linux so i could learn more and more importantly, not listen to my fellow porgrammers say, "miscroft is the new era, the real way to go"

let me know if i am in the right place. just a student looking to find other enthusists.

Your best bet would probably be the Linux forum then;)

for what its worth, i thought this was a linux forum.

im actually aggrivated that most of the linux distribution sites offer faulty ftp adresses, not to mention when i do get one downloaded the 500mb file has nothing to do with linux at all.

really id just like to get a copy of an up to date linux and partitian my hard drive and see how it is, but i am having mad trouble doing so.

any help?

No, this is a computer hardware and software enthusiast forum that just happens to have an emphasis on graphics hardware by NVIDIA (even though many of the regulars here actually own ATI cards ;) ).

Here (http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=27) is where you want to go for any and all discussion about Linux. There also is a separate forum to discuss NVIDIA's graphics drivers for Linux.
