Hello, Newbie to Linux. - jstauf86 - 03-13-2014

Hi Linux-Lite,
I have tried different distros before and always when back to XP. But after watching "Spatry" YouTube video "Linux Lite 1.0.8 The BEST Replacement For Windows XP!" I think this is the distro for me, it has most of the program I would use right out of the box. And I am hoping it will breath new life into my (many, many) old PC I have around the house.

I know there are a lot of Micro$oft haters but IMHO they made a very intuitive interface (up until Windows 8 ). Why not take what Micro$oft does good and make it better?

Hello, jstauf86.

Welcome to Linux Lite! Besides everything that's included, I like the scripts you can run later to add other software that isn't included, but still popular. This saves space on the LiveCD itself.
