So i've finally done it. I convinced my parents to cancel their 'lolAOL' finalle and move on to gmail accounts (damn it was a long road, seriously AOL is adware you pay for and they would not cancel that shit). Anyway, I'm going to be installing Linux on their desktop for them, and I'm debating which distribution to use. I've used Ubuntu on my laptop for a long time and i'm thinking it would be a good choice as it's user friendly and I can spice it up a little with some effects for fun.
I'm thinking Ubuntu might be best because I'm familiar with it as well. If there is another distribution of linux anyone would like to reference i'll gladly look into it. Oh, and I'm so glad I finally can get linux installed for them, for some reason that Desktop got more shit on it then you would believe. I'm trusting Linux to be stupid-proof enough for them to not own the desktop with adware.
Well i've moved both my parents to gmail accounts, and i'm thinking of installing an instant messenger client but i'm debating which would be best there as well if anyone has info. Any experiences with other distribs would be appreciated too if anyone has a particular one they like. Thanks ahead of time for any help!
