I gotta say. I've been experimenting several linux systems since the first release of Ubuntu. Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSuse (arghh), Mandriva, and other not so well know distributions. But, for some reason or other I always went back to Windows, not that I like it more than Linux, but mainly bacause of compatibility issues (office, graphics card ...).
But, I'm done with Windows. It's not so fast, it lacks the good security measures that linux has, it's commercial and closed source (so, whe never know if they really been honest with us... ...). And, I'm done with that crap, since the last infection with a trojan that the antivirus detected, but too late. I'm mainly a internet user. Sometimes I like to watch videos and listen to some music. Mageia gives me all that. And, with a beautiful and well organized desktop interface (I'm using GHNOME 3.) What can I ask more? I know there are some bugs here and there. But nothing really big. And I know that, with time, things are going to be even better.
And now that I installed Opera 12 (an amazing browser. The mainstream minds don't know what they're losing), it's the perfect operating system for my informatic needs.
Thank you Mageia team.
I'm not an engineer or programmer but, whatever you need that I can do, I'm here to help.
Congratulations for this wonderful GNU/Linux operating system.
