I almost got an HP laptop; I wish I did. I tested out the Ubuntu Live CD on it, and everything went smoothly.

Then hardware is chosen to fit the new software set.

It was fast and simple. I didn’t go hunting all over the place for drivers. It was a blast to use, too. I do not like it when an operating system comes bundled with apps I don’t want.

Speaking of hardware, I promise not to buy a computer just because it looks “pretty”. Before I used Linux, I got a laptop and didn’t do my research. I didn’t know much about specs, but I liked the shiny gray keyboard! After using Linux, I learned so much about computers that I now make smart choices when it comes to hardware. As a result, I won’t choose Linux-unfriendly hardware. Software will be easier to install. :)
