Greetings all. I'm testing out windows live writer as an alternative to w.bloggar for creating blog posts... First impressions are good... I like the way that it gives me a proper preview as it will look in the web. I also like the UI (very Word-esque), and the fact that I can save drafts etc... I think I'll be using this from now on! :)

I've been a windows user since the days of windows 3.1... windows at college and Amiga Workbench at home :) Windows 95 was a big improvement, and XP another big step. But I always wondered how life was as a Linux user. I've also been plagued with XP annoyances recently - spyware, anti-virus software and all the security add-ons have been driving me mad! So, recently I "took the plunge", and discovered how much linux has progressed recently. This post is basically just me waffling about my Linux experience....
