The Ubuntu Netbook Edition is too much like the OS X though. :thumbsups:, Ubuntu is good though. All you actually have to do right now is just download the .iso again, and reinstall if you want Windows back (put it on another partition).

If you ever want to test an operating system use a virtual machine.

I sorta like it, but I feel like I'm missing out on stuff like ooVoo. =/
And I need to figure out where to get my cd key back..it was pre-installed on the computer.
