I have been running the box for over 2 and a half months now. (Notice that Linux machines are always called Boxes for some reason) Things were really shaky at first and it continues to be a struggle when I try to do new things for the first time. If this were my only computer, I think I could manage to find the programs and resources I need to become as proficient with the operating system and applications as I am on my windows machine, but at this time I do not see the need to spend the time doing so. Other than the fact that it is all supposed to be free (as I learned the things I REALLY want aren't so "free") I see no valid reason to switch from the windows environment to the Linux world.
For the benefit of anyone that doesn't want to read through everything I have posted, the following 9 posts are the ones I have deemed most noteworthy. They are in reverse order so that they can be read by going through the blog from top to bottom. (or thanks to a suggestion by Jennifer L, you may click the links)

Jason, I was one of your "loyal readers" (perhaps the only one), and I really appreciate today's wrap up and "highlights reel." (Although, why not hyperlink the posts so I don't have to scroll?)
I haven't been as actively engaged with my Linux machine, which I will never call a "box." Since installing Ubuntu, I have noticed it running better than it has in months. I don't necessarily attribute that to Linux; re-installing an operating system was just a good, overall exercise for me and for the computer! As I mentioned in my own blog, my only complaint is it lost its wireless capability somehow during the process. As I seldom travel with my computer, it hasn't been much of an issue for me, but I do hope to resolve this problem sometime soon. I pretty much moved on to other projects for this class, which I have enjoyed more anyway.
Thanks again for all the advice and info.
