Hey guys and gals,
I'm a newbie to Linux. I have been pretty much a lifelong user of Microsoft softwares. I have grown up using Windows Millenium and XP for the majority of my years and had found out last year that support would be ending for my beloved XP.
So I was on a hunt for a new OS for me, after some searching I at first wanted Linux Mint after which I knew Linux was popular and well-known. Though, after burning a CD I had found I was unable to install the popular distro so I went for something lightweight hoping to success - and then Linux Lite from vids and reviews seemed the perfect solution.
Now, after installing now I'm tweaking or fixing to my needs. So hello to everyone, and I'd like to say thanks for having me!
