Ok, so I know I just reinstalled Windows on my computer, but after a bit of research I’ve decided to convert my primary operating system over to a Linux distro called Ubuntu. It’s easy to install (easier than Windows!), offers good online support from a very large community, and it has all of the features and software I’d need from Windows built-in to it as well as a few additional networking features that I don’t neccesarily need, but are nice to have.

The only down-side is that there’s no native Guild Wars client for Linux, so I’m keeping Winblows XP just for that purpose. Hopefully, Arena.net, the makers of Guild Wars, will release a Linux client sometime soon and I can completely abandon Windows.
