Care for a mint


Being the geek that I am, I decided to download and try a version of Linux called Mint. It's a free open source operating system optimized for media. Overall it seams to be a solid OS. I don't foresee myself using Mint on a regular basis. But if I need a PC for web browsing and other standard computer aplications, I would consider using Mint. I recommend a copy of Mint on a bootable CD in case Windows starts having issues. This allows you to run Mint from the CD drive to troubleshoot problems. The OS also has links to a number of applications that you can download for free. So go ahead and unleash your inner geek and give Mint a try. It will make your breath smell good also.
