Welcome to Ubuntu! Is this your first time with Linux?

I'm a total convert, myself - installed dualboot Ubuntu in May 2008, deleted Vista from my hd the year after, and have never missed it.

Tangent, because I have a how-to on it: Do you know about setting up keyboard shortcuts for oft-used programs/folders/files in Ubuntu? It's so brilliant. The ability to customize in Linux never ceases to impress me!
