no money for Windows? use Ubuntu

-
i happen to come across this OS while reading CNET new, Ubuntu.... it is a Linux variant OS...but hack....

Ubuntu is like Windows OS now... graphical interface, comes with OpenOffice (like Windows Office with less features), Firefox (like Internet Explorer and better), some email software (like Outlook)... the graphical interface like Mac but you can download Kubuntu (like Windows interface)....i have yet to really play with it but all these are FREE (for now)! and they (Ubuntu community) aim to make this free for as long.... KUDOS.

even Dell (only US) is adopting it....see this

this OS is especially good if you have very old PC or laptop that have problems running Windows (resource hungry) OS. :P

(not sure why i remembered this day, probably my birthday which was the following day). mum told us that she was going to see specialist at Alexandra Hospital the following week... i always felt closer to her than my siblings since young. i could sense that she always took special care of me... maybe i was the one that was always sick (suffering asthma attacks), getting most sprains, most cuts and most playful... the weakest in health. ---- during primary 3, i recalled that i was hospitalised (almost dead) because of asthma attacks. she would stay with me through the few nights, taking intense care of me. she would piggy-back me around. ---- although she would nag, shout and scold, and at times, i find her annoying... i really miss her voice now.
