Linux Laptops Vs Netbooks

This film was captured on my Flip Cam, saved to my Linux Mint 7 Desktop (my favorite distro), and then uploaded here to You Tube. No Mac and no Windows had any part of this, which is a first for me!

I was short on time to use my video editing software (on my Mac) to add cool effects. This has a lot of new information about my life and Linux uncut and unedited. I'll get a few more Linux videos up here in the near future.

good to see mint's working good for you man =)

[stmpoodle]

Thanks. Mint works so well, I can almost say I won't use anything else. Then again, it is still too fun to explore and compare all the new and appealing alternatives.

How can i add firefox to panel?

[elitepuffin]

Mint will resize the partitions in the install

[ShadowEater120880]

@roffpoff Yes you can dual boot, just get Win7 to resize the NTFS and you can install to the free space. This will give a dual boot system.

What happening when i install mint on a win7 eee notebook ?, will i be able to get to both os?

[KirkeyTheTurkey7]

Have you tried Mint Recently on a netbook? Do you know if it would work better?

[hrbear]

@stmpoodle Yes, it's great! It's also my personal choice over now. :-)

At 1:20 Super Tux is a great platform game. I finished many levels, and then I came into a difficult level where I stuck. The enemies are nice and funny :-)

@SuperBrandango yeah, but if i were to just want a straight install without loading a "real" GUI i would just download the alternative cd that runs as just the installer (also in text mode)

as for easier, sure you could say that.

[SuperBrandango]

@heydude09876 Haha i see what you mean with ubuntu, well i think ubuntu is easier to install, cause one you boot the flashdrive, and press enter a menu will pop up before it loads the os demo and you can install straight from there, no need to go through the demo, were you aware of that?

[heydude09876]

@SuperBrandango yes, i especially like there new look, I never liked the green/black look in the old default but the new default actually looks really nice with a silver/silver or green/silver theme (for me the opposite opinion occurs with Ubuntu "i hate purple themes")... of coarse thats all changeable...

it also works well and I have not had any real problems yet. BTW the software installer in the applications menu (search bar) in ingenious and saves loads of time.
