ubuntu

I've been thinking to migrate to Ubuntu for a long time now. previously i did switch to Ubuntu 8.04 LTS. but it did not work out. my modem wasn't compatible to it. so i was forced to change back to windows. since i upgraded to broadband INTERNET last July it was only a matter of time i installed Linux/Ubuntu. it took me two tries to install Ubuntu. now that i had done it I'm having issues to find everything i need. it was said to me and i also believed that Ubuntu has a lot to offer but the truth is, you need to have a lot of experience to set everything in motion.now i have to go through all the guides to learn to use my computer once again.
