Sup, my name is Branden and im 22. I currently live in central Florida and am going to school for computer programming and analysis(AS).

welcome to linux-noob :)

so, what os/distro do you use?

Fortunately im using windows right now. This is only until I can get a router in my room, since Linux doesnt support most linksys adapters. :( . Im thinking of swapping out the router that my parents use with the adapter that way I can run a distro, and hopefully permanently :). Another reason Im not running it is cause I just built a new computer and has been a while to know which distro supports my hardware. :(

hi and welcome to the forums

 

you could dual boot windows/linux on your computer

 

consider using a noob friendly distro like fedora/suse/linspire/mandrake

 

good luck

 

cheers
