Hi thanks Eric and LilBambi.

I've archived Go2Linux.org. Now I'm posting in this other site.

I'm happy you liked the article.
For the first time I send an article to a proof reading before posting for grammar checking.

It seems it was a good idea. :)

Great article Guillermo, you hit the nail on the head in your conclusion in my opinion.

Quote

My advice is: As soon as you can, as soon as you feel comfortable with Linux, test Arch Linux, you will never look back.

I can attest to that quote.  I dabbled with a few different distros, Mandrive, PCLOS, Mint, Bodhi, Crunch Bang, etc and though all of them are great distros, once I installed Arch, there was no looking back.  I don't even think about installing anything else on a new machine.

(***Cookie*** I hope you read this article.)  As much as he is enjoying Linux and wants to get "under the hood" I am going to convert him into an Arch Linux User.  Mark my words :hysterical:

Right on there . Since installing Arch I have never had the time to look back. Spend all me time lookin at wikis and chasing up threads in forums. Never looked back once. Mind you my choice of software might have something to do with my always forward looking :Laughing:

Cool!

Yes, that is a great idea (proofreading) before posting for grammar checking. Could use some of that myself sometimes LOL!
