Hi guys,
I used to be Apple fanboy for 6 years but I have grown to resent towards it. Can someone point me to a right direction when it comes to Linux? At this moment, too many different Linux choices is confusing for me.
Here's what I need my computer (13" MacBook Pro, 2 years old) to do:
Basic office suite that can open both Windows Office and iWork files.
Good email client.
Good address book that integrates with Google Contacts.
Skype.
Videos & music. Music program has to be able to update music in my iPod.
Some nice calendar app.
Torrent app of course
In a nutshell, I'm quite basic computer user. There are no special apps I need to run apart from few productivity tools (like Evernote). I'm looking for something that is minimalistic (but enough to have all those basic apps) and OS that has nice look (eye candy). Also, easy to use Linux version is a bonus, I'm new to this world.
Can you please give me your educated guess which Linux version I should look into. Thanks in advance.
