    Agreed. I also recommend using Linuxliveusb or Unetbootin for creating linux usb drives.

    also you could ask @theZoid. I think he is from Flordia.

    I agree on that you have to install it on your own (with our help). Because if you can't install it yourself, how can you operate it?
    For me the process of installation was the process of getting known with this OS.

    Linux is the easiest OS to install, just do it!

    Last time I was in Florida, I couldn't find a single computer place anywhere.

    Yeah, not a mecca for technology, otherwise I'd be packing my bags and heading south :p.

    It's a shame cause Florida is great otherwise but there's literally like not even 1 computer store in the entire state. A best buy here or there but that doesn't really count.

    Yeah. Ideally I'd be doing software development somewhere in the Miami-Dale area or just north of that. But obviously that's more of a tourist-y area than anything else. I suppose telecommunication is an option, but I like doing work in-person :eek:.
