Hi my name is Clint Brothers and I started linuxease.com to extend my blog clintbrothers.blogspot.com and to make easier tutorials and content.  If you have a high speed internet connection you can start installing Linux now from unetbootin.

Free Open Source Software(FOSS) and GIMP was mentioned by Oprah in her magazine and on her website.  Linux is FOSS and GIMP comes with most LINUX distrobutions.  Not only is Linux FREE but it is also virus and malware free (it's imune to virus) and no slowdowns after you've had your computer for years.  Linux is fast, fun, free, and easy. Linuxease is here to show you how to use Linux the easy way.  Once you learn the basics in Linux you'll be ready to start using some of the 28,352(screenshot) FOSS programs.

GIMP is just 1 of 28,352 reasons to use LINUX, It's easier to add programs in LINUX than it is to install programs in windows.  Here is the proof that once you start using LINUX you will never have to pay for a piece of software(program) again.  Microsoft might even become a dirty word in your household too.  You will laugh at everything the evil empire(microsoft) tries to sell you, because you know how to get the equivalent or better for free.

28,352 FREE programs including GIMP as mentioned in Oprah's article on Open Source

UBUNTU is a safe, secure, reliable, free distribution of Linux that is immune to virus, spyware, and all the stuff that plagues windows. Ubuntu has 28,352 different programs you can download and use totally free.  If you don't have a cd writer(burner) and you want to jump right in you can use unetbootin to download and install from the internet.

To get the Livecd shiped to you free, or download and burn it now, go get Ubuntu here.  If you downloaded it then burn the .iso file you downloaded to a cd as an image.

Now you have an Ubuntu GNU/LINUX LiveCD, what next >

Put the cd in while you're in windows you'll see a screen that gives you 3 choices.

  1. Demo and full installation from the Livecd (requires rebooting with cd in)

  2. Install inside windows (the first thing we'll cover)

  3. Learn more install from livecd environment

For this tutorial we'll use the 2nd choice and click the install inside windows button.

A window then appears showing you you're options just keep defaults and make up a password then click install. It will take some time (15-45 minutes depending on your computer) then you'll reboot and select(arrow down) UBUNTU as shown here.

After you click finish your computer will reboot. Make sure to arrow down and select UBUNTU to start it instead of windows.

The first thing I do after install is add my local temperature next to the time and change my pointer color and size, here is how to do just that.
