    does anyone i have any Linux Distros i can try out?

    i'm sort of getting fed up of ubuntu, it keeps deleting my files and then fails to restore them afterwards and it is annoyingly stupid especially when some of the files are development files for mods and stuff! grrr

    at the moment i'm looking for something that's fast, low requiring, and doesn't have such a stupid, annoying interface, and customizable to hell.

    If you can just give some names of a distro to try, then i'll be grateful.

    sounds like a nice idea, but there's no installation easy enough at the moment, so i might have to give it a pass for now, it's a great idea though, it looks good like, when i'm more advanced and more confident, i might give it a try

    it is simple the only problem is compatability with photoshop I have not tried but it is lightning fast I have it on a netbook more designed for streamlined internet users and does not load up crap it is the fastest os out there.

    can you install via a disk? i don't have USB drive big enough, which sucks.

    You should be able to burn files onto a disc and make sure you put your boot sequence to disc as first boot device

    yeah, i've done that with ubuntu, so it should remain the same. in that case, chrome it is. I'll see what i can do about photoshop CS5 running on it. HOPEFULLY if all else fails, ubuntu should still be bootable so i should still be able to use it.
