I like Linux but I’m so used to finding an executable to install software. Installing is a pain in Linux.

I’m amazed by the beautiful screen savers that Linux has (Mint). I wish I could find the same ones to run on Windows (for free of course).

After trying Open Suse 11.2, but having YAST freeze the whole system on more than once, i installed Mint on this PC, which i also have an older PC, and which i have found to be the best so far, partly due to its Control Center. Although sound does not work except when headphones are selected instead, nor does the installed Adobe flash, which is often a problem in some other distros.
