So Long, Farewell, But Not Goodbye

It’s been a great run Ubuntu. You were there when I needed a fast OS for an old laptop. I have to leave you now. I’m sorry, I wish I didn’t have to, but it’s for the best right now. Please forgive me.

Yes, I’m back on Windows on my laptop. Trust me, I didn’t want to go back, but I needed the functionality of my laptop so that I can use it for work when I’m, well, at work. I needed Photoshop (GIMP just doesn’t cut it), Internet Explorer (IE on WINE wasn’t cutting it), and Outlook for exchange email (Evolution didn’t want to update the calendar and folders). Yeah, I’m sure I could have eventually gotten everything to work right, but it was just easier to switch back to windows for the time being. I don’t plan to be on it for long though. As soon as I get a new laptop (hopefully within the next month or so) this one will be going back to the world of Ubuntu. For my next laptop, I really want a Macbook Pro, but may get a PC laptop. Anyone have any laptop suggestions?
