Hello all,

I have been contemplating installing Linux for years but now with what we seeing in Windows it was time to jump in and just do it. I have my laptop and gaming desktop so I started first on my laptop as I need to know just how well games can run on Linux but that is for another thread.

So after looking around at the different versions of Linux and doing some serious reading I went with MInt.

So as a newbie to Linux I am sure I will be asking questions as I learn how it all works.

Mint is a good starting point for anyone moving from Microsoft, and wanting a point and click OS. we have a linux gaming section and many members w.ho can advise you on using Linux for gaming

@Develorian You should probably put those links in your signature instead of typing them out each time, which seems a bit spammy and also gets your first posts caught in the queue.
 
Welcome, Mint is a good choice.
