i guess im officially a nerd. its Ubuntu. I actually got the wireless card wroling and everything. now, i just need to learn how to umm...install programs....and umm...do other things i already know how to do on mac and windows.

anyway, i installed it, because it is good to know how to use and beucase all my sister does on this computer is internet and IM and she got it gummed up with all sorts of shit even though I had a firewall and virus protection and spybot. so I figured if I installed linux, i would never have to worry about it braking down like windows or getting viruses and so on...

Linux has been out of the Nerd only field since GUIs such as Gnome, KDE, and Motif

also it stopped being underground when Wallmart started selling their computers running Linux.

sorry you should have jumped on the bandwagon in the 90s to officialize you geekiness

^ yea thats easy, you just download a buch of programs and run them.....BUT the programs such as window blinds (toolbar at the top) and object bar slow down yourcomputer a hell of a lot and cause a lot of problems, iv been there,

yeah I would never do that. the windows XP gui alone before changing settings is a huge memory guzzler

just hack your uxtheme.dll file. some of the themes for that take up less ram then the regular ass windows one. (I did not manually hack it, i got a program, i dont hack shit im not that good)
