Hello Linux Mint community, I'm a multidisciplinary artist who loves technology but who wants to stay free while using it. That is why Linux attracted me one year ago. Because there is no contract unlike Windows when you are installing the system and of course it is FREE of co$t!. i've tried many Linux distribution: KDE, XCFE, Unix, etc...but only Linux Mint caught my attention. I'm still using once and a while Windows 7 on my laptop but I have to admit that most of the time, I'm on Linux Mint.

I hope I'll get help here when I'll have difficulties with my Linux systems.

My 2 Linux systems:

 

My «Living Room PC» : Dell XPS 420
Memory: 4 Go
Disk space : 500 Go
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2,40GHz, 2394 MHz, 4 cores, 4 processors
Graphic card: Radeon HD 5830
OS type: 64 bit
System: Linux Mint 14 (Nadia) Edition Cinnamon


My old experimental PC : DELL Optiplex 745
Memory: 3 Go
Disk space: 160 Go
Processor: Intel® Pentium(R) D CPU 3.40GHz × 2
Graphic card: Intel® 965Q x86/MMX/SSE2
OS type: 32 bit
System: Linux Mint Debian Edition version 1
