Hello :) I'm new to Linux and I'm trying out a Persistent Bootable Ubuntu USB Drive!
 

So far the experience has been better than I could have hoped for, from installation, to recognition of drivers I need, to all the ready to use software.

I'm looking forward to asking lots of stupid questions, and maybe in a few months a couple good ones!

I decided to take the plunge after reading How-To Geek's post: Create a Persistent Bootable Ubuntu USB Flash Drive
