Ubuntu…
Two weeks ago my computer running windows 7 blue screened 3 times within an hour. I then decided to reformat my computer by re-installing the OS. I had most of my files and music backed up on a USB drive. So I begin the daunting task of reinstalling windows and the DVD had some problems with it and it wouldn’t work. So I decided to give UBUNTU a try. This is a FREE operating system based on Linux. It is fast and you are able to customize add on’s to create an operating system like no other. The only downside is that some windows programs will not run…the only one that I need is Itunes to manage my Iphone and Ipod. I ended up using Oracle Virtual Box running windows 7 with Itunes and other windows software installed… If it crashes again i will be able to restore from a backup of the image. After completing all of this it was time to restore my files from my backup USB drive…I had not seen my drive in a few days but that night Morgan pulled it out of the dryer and it was destroyed. This time around i will create a backup of the backup’s backup.
