Ubuntu

The debian's use apt-get to install programs such as
command line:
sudo apt-get install package
your computer will download and install the software you requested and all other dependent software it needs

Ubuntu has this wrapped in a nice GUI

Do you have Ubuntu running on something ?

[panic!]

I managed to get Ventrilo working under Wine, but it was a pain and was buggy as hell.

You can run it from live disk to try it out. without installing it to you computer.

ah, ill probably try that. Im not looking to go any major gaming(thats what my 360 is for), i found a list on the wineHQ site.Wine Application DB - Wine Application Database

Im more looking for the basics, Typing Documents, Check Email, browse internet stuff of the sort.

I've been using it nearly full-time for approximately two months now. I still have a lot of games that aren't supported in Wine or Cedega, so I've got a WinXP partition around for gaming.

It also keeps me on task...somewhat.

Ya i got it burned on the Disk and booted it up and ABSOLUTLY love it. I have yet to install on to actual HD, but i think ill use it full time. But also have a partition of xp around for gaming.
