THG On Migrating To Linux

Posted by timothy on from the how-would-you-do-it dept.

inphinity writes "The fine folks over at Tom's Hardware have posted an interesting guide titled Migrating from Windows to Linux. In the first of what will hopefully be several parts, they describe what steps to take to back up critical data and move to open-source apps. All in all, a fairly in-depth and comprehensive step-by-step guide. As a nice touch, they've even included a downloadable checklist for confused people."

  1. I used to work at Tom's Hardware by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    back when I was a teenager..it was a heck of a lot of fun working in the lumber department until that day I accidently fired a nailgun into Tom's skull. After that I was demoted to the screws department. Tom recovered but developed a real nasty habit of picking his nose in public and eating the booger..really disgusting to watch. Those are great memories I had of working at Tom's hardware before Home Depot and Lowes took most of their business away.
