I've had Ubuntu on my netbook several times over the past couple releases and have a USB drive with it ready. Same with Chrome....

I'm a co owner of a small business and as the "IT" guy have no time left to look at other OS. Unfortunately we get dependant on things.

 

Oh you're preaching to the choir there. Being the "IT" guy for the family business was how I really got into computers more than just playing games and fixing neighbors wifi. The entire company was basically run from one public drive on a windows server. Finding anything was a nightmare.

 

That would be Dropbox today. Still the same nightmare.
