Why ubuntu?

I would like to start by thanking a few people who helped me alot in linux. I was a total noob with no background in linux. Dittmerdan, Nano, Cereal from the computerhelpforum.org. Without their advice, I won't get this far.

My guide will cover all the way from how to get your drive partitioned to installing. Even if you totally have no clue on what the hell this thing is about. Just follow the whole guide from the start of the first post will get you a free usable and functional OS. Just follow exactly and you will have everything up and running.

What's good about learning this?

The best part of ubuntu is that it can be booted up on the CD itself and run as a full OS and is very handy whenever windows gets into a BSOD crash.
Simply hook up an external drive and you can copy everything out.
Another reason to use ubuntu is that it is totally un infectable by any virus or malware, which makes it a very safe OS for your work.

You can don't game, but I don't think you can survive a few weeks without going online.

MSN for ubuntu



You can either use the pre installed pidgin messenger or use something like meebo.  If you really missed the interface of MSN live for windows. You can install the AMSN.  It looks and functions like windows msn with little differences.

Install it by keying this in the terminal 

sudo apt-get install amsn

or 

search for AMSN in the package manager
