Larry Anderson

Inspired by @gtwilson's experience today, I've re-posted the blog posts I originally wrote on Posterous eight years ago, documenting my attempted switch to Ubuntu Linux with a System76 laptop that came with Ubuntu pre-installed.

Here they are:

The adventure begins [blog.larryanderson.org]
Unboxing the Pangolin Performance [blog.larryanderson.org]
First and last steps with Ubuntu [blog.larryanderson.org]
Final reflections [blog.larryanderson.org]

Be gentle. I was a lot less experienced eight years ago. :-)

@gtwilson I've heard this is the year of Linux on the desktop. ?

@gtwilson I may just have to dig out the relevant posts from my Posterous archive regarding my experiences buying a laptop that came with Ubuntu preinstalled, and repost them on my blog here, if only for entertainment purposes.

Die Sonne scheint,
Der Himmel lacht,
Das hat der SED gemacht!
