Converting the wife from XP to Ubuntu
Posted by Jason on January 13, 2008
If I can do it…
So far, my move to Ubuntu has been a great success and I like it more as I learn more. There’s one more box in the household here – the wife’s. Now, all she does is a few casual games (spider solitaire, othello and the like), surf, blog and email – and some minor related tasks like very simple image editing. I’m getting more comfortable with Ubuntu, so I figure it’s time to move her over as well. Her computer is my old desktop, a P4 1.7GHz with 1GB of RAM and 2 80G drives – not worthless, but certainly not “peppy” under WinXP.
She doesn’t know or care about a computer outside of those uses, and gets bored to death if I have to explain something to her. The box is not virus/spyware or otherwise crippled, it’s a WinXP SP2 install that I kept up-to-date with anti-virus and anti-spyware checks.
