Windows 7 Professional x64 |
this tutorial is awesome! I actually just put Ubuntu on one of my empty internal HDD's last night and it's pretty kool. This was my first experience w/ a linux based PC, it's definitely not noob friendly like windows haha. First thing that came to mind was Mac when I saw the machine boot up lol. I would like to give Red Hat a try as well, so i will probably just create a VM for it  | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom Box

I just should find the time and update it, new versions of both VirtualBox and Ubuntu are out and the tut a bit outdated. +1.
Linux mint is a good choice for Linux beginners and more advanced users alike who feel Ubuntu is not for them.
