new to linux - errhuhblaman - 2008-08-03


Hi! I'm new to Linux ... ... well I've still have yet to use it, but i am interested. I have been using windows my entire life and it'd like to try something else.

 

i use computers for gaming and I'm pretty familiar with hardware and drivers but other software and coding I'm unexperienced with. I'm going to be building a computer within the next year or so because my computer that i built 2 years ago is beginning to show its age and it'd like to get a feel before making the switch over to Linux.

 

I've briefed some sites about compatibility with many programs and this is another hurdle I'm going to have to learn to get around. if there is any videos/walkthroughs or any other form of help it would be greatly appreciate!

 

and if you do any online gaming yourself, i might play/played it before too.
