My first impressions of Ubuntu is that it's very Mac-like. Which makes sense, given that they're both Unix based systems.

It's taking a bit of getting my head around, but that's the problem with any new system, and actually a part I find fun (the last phone I got, the guy in the shop offered to set it up for me, as if I didn't know what I would be doing with it, and I was all, "No chance!" because that's one of my favourite parts of getting a new phone).

It's neater than Windows and, while Firefox is making my computer stress out a little as I type, it doesn't seem as resource hungry. Which is good.

I'm going to try it for a week or so, but I think I may well be making the swap come this time next week (aside from anything else, having it dual-boot is WEIRD and I'd rather it didn't, to be honest).

Anyway, I was (not so) accidentally up till 3:30 this morning messing with it and now I'm running on five hours' sleep! (Yay insomnia! Though this is the first major blip I've had in a while, so I'm not really complaining at all. I think).

More to come later, perhaps? We'll see.
