[QUOTE="splozi, post: 963892"] Linux distros of today are not what they were 12 years ago. Everything is streamlined to the point of being over-simplistic. After I built my new computer around new year (from extra money earned driver helping, yeehaw), I started messing with Ubuntu for the first time in a couple of years. Eventually I settled on xubuntu which uses the (light) xfce window manager. Friggin'... awesome... Once you figure out what applications you need to do what you want to do, it's better than windows ten times over (imo). I mess around with different things a lot that sometimes I end up screwing something up. So I've had to reinstall a few times. I've gotten to the point to where after a reinstall, I can get everything up and running the way it was before in about 2 hours... all because of the way configuration files are stored in /home. I don't have to reconfigure very much at all. Just move old configs over, reinstall my programs through the software center, and BAM. The only part of the masochist thing that is true for me is the SEXUAL THRILL! THE SEXUAL THRILL! hehe, Family Guy. [/QUOTE]
