Talking Hello to All LQ Members!

I'm just an old Buckeye trying to learn a few new tricks.
I really want to make Ubuntu my primary OS, but as I go, I realize that I have much more to learn than I realized. The more I learn, the more need to learn, if that makes any sense at all!
I have looked around this forum a bit and it seems like a good place to be.
Thanks for this opportunity to introduce myself!

Hello and welcome Buckeye16.
If you need help you've come to the right place. But there are lots of people who also just socialise a bit here.

Hi! VirtualBox would allow a WinUser to 'ultra' easily&safely run Linux 'in minutes'
Maybe tell us a tiny bit about your PC (EFI?) and any Linux experiences/intrests/goals.

Your post sparked my interest because I just today picked up a library book (tho 2009)
"Ubuntu Linux Desktop: Your Visual Blueprint" (a GUI tutorial for me!)

Best wishes! Jump IN and ENJOY! p.s. maybe this [<-click] 'LQhowTo' can be my welcome gift to you

Hello and welcome to the forum, is it safe to assume you're from Ohio?

Regards...

Yes, I have been an Ohioan for over sixty (60) years now! I think it is a pretty cool state.

Welcome Buckeye,
I'd agree with you about Ohio. In fifty years of moving around, I've never really been anything other than a boy from the Ohio hill country. It kinda sticks with you, don't it?

Hi...

That's cool. Although I've done some traveling around, I've been an Oregonian all my life. Ours is a unique state as well.

Regards...
