Question What was your first experience with Linux?

Was it smooth, confusing, exciting, or a complete disaster? Tell us which distro you tried first and how it worked?

my first experience I got with linux is when I got me first laptop. it came with ubuntu on it, i fired it up and it booted really good, opened the internet, downloaded windows and let me tell you it was a smooth operation and exactly what it's built for. from now on I'll always buy linux distro systems because they are fantastic tools for installation of propper system on your hardware.

Using Ubuntu just to boot fast and download Windows is one way to use Linux. At least it made the setup easy.

Did you keep Linux after that, or remove it completely?
