Check this out: It’s called andlinux and it’s pretty cool check out this youtube video and the link is below

here’s a little review from here

If you have to use Windows for your day job or for a few must-have applications, but you’re a penguin at heart, have we got a program for you. While you can run Linux inside of Windows using virtualization software like VirtualBox or VMWare, andLinux goes a few steps further and essentially installs Linux on top of your Windows operating system, allowing the two to exist side by side and even interact with one another.

In other words, once andLinux is installed, you can launch native Linux applications almost as easily as any Windows program.

AndLinux comes in two varieties the moment. Both are based on Ubuntu, but one installs a full KDE system with all the programs that normally come with Kubuntu. The other version basically installs Xubuntu, which uses the light-weight XFCE desktop environment and packs fewer bells and whistles.

So, yes, I don’t like blogs very much. It seems that a lot of very angry people write(type) angry words all the time. I’m not a particularly angry person, nor am I very interesting.

1. Daniel Tosh

2. Jimmy Carr

3. Demetri Martin

4. Mitch Hedberg

5. I like other comedians, but those are my personal faves (this really means I can’t think of a fifth one that I really like)
