Would it really matter if I wrote it as I did though or is it just good habits?

I couldn't find the proper key combination to write the subscript part of it but is this correct? H5C3O would mean Five Hydrogen Atoms, Three Carbon Atoms and One Oxygen?

With a distro like Fedora or Mandrake it's simple. Mandrake and Fedora both have graphical installers and make installing Linux a snitch! It really depends on what distro you pick. I would pick Mandrake. Fedora is nice to but red hat inc has modified some of the programs avaliable for fedora because of copyright reasons when Mandrake has not. I think you would like Linux alot. You should try a live cd if you have not already. This way you can get a taste of Linux without having to install it to your hard drive.

Yes Linux does not support some hardware but there is usually a work around. For example my Broadcom based wireless card would not work under Linux and only had drivers avaliable for Windows. I downloaded ndiswrapper from ndiswrapper.sf.net (or go to sf.net and look up ndiswrapper) and was able to use my windows drivers for linux to get my wireless card to work. I love linux and the reason why is 1. Security 2. Diverse 3. Advanced When I 1st switched to Linux is wasn't very hard to learn. Mandrake and other distros make it simple any more to use Linux. Most servers run Linux. For example I bet this server that host this site runs Linux or even BSD. Microsoft is trying to release longhorn early because there hurting to Linux. Linux is free open and open source! It has several compilers pre-installed for your use and is just plain nice! You can pick from diffrent window managers so if you don't like the gui of let's same gome you can move to kde, blackbox or another window manager avaliable. Wine works well with most applications. Here is me running the windows application mIRC from mirc.com. You should try linux and give it a chance! It won't bite!

Here is mine. Linux all the way!

Intresting find MolecularMan. Kind of off topic but I suggest you use http://imageshack.us for uploading your pictures. You could then post many of them with the tag!

I am 16 years old and the last I checked I was 6'2. My drivers licnese says 6'1 so I must have grown since then unless it's wrong. And for all the people who don't like having there weight known anyone can find out how much you weight when you post your height. I don't think anyone cares though since it's over the Internet.
