Linux-Noob Forums

I've never used Linux, but I've always wanted to.

My problem is that I grew up on Windows, and I don't know anything else. I'm buying a laptop this weekend (an old one) for the sole purpose of stripping it and dropping Linux on it. I want to get up to speed. So please be patient, as I've got tonnes of learning to do. :/

Btw, I'm a college student. Male, and 20 years old. Born and raised in SC in the USA. This year I'm hoping to be studying at Waseda University in Tokyo. Wish me luck. [img]<___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_laugh.png[/img]

Thanks, I appreciate it, and I assure you that I'll be asking questions once I figure out what it is I need to ask. o_O
