I wont livery by Ubuntu (Linux) in for Windows 8.
Im glad im off Windows 7, wich made my laptop slow as ass.

Since i did a test for background processes with W7 comparing to AOS and LI-OS i was stunned.
So much processes slowing your pc/laptop down starts to become annoying and not needed.

Especially when you laptop is from Acer (Acer is a really good brand, but you got to delete like half of the laptops memory when you get it brand new. Acer sucks at delivering new laptops (So many programs running on background and useless programs)

my laptop is from Acer. I had re-installed Windows 7 a little while after and with a fresh copy of Win7 and no bloatware running there was a good increase in speed. Right now I'm using Linux Mint and it's a hell of a lot faster and nicer.

Mint 12?
I had issues with that one. Colourbit changed and made every colour into like 100 and mouse sometimes dont want to move.
Ubuntu works great!

when i tried mint sometimes the bars at the top of windows wouldn't appear. i think it must have been a bad installation. i like opensuse.

Mint has been working great for me so far, I like it. I had Ubuntu 11.10, didn't like it too much, ran kinda slow and lagged a bunch, instead of fixing it I decided to try some other distros. I tried Pear OS, sucked, Fedora 16, it was ok just couldn't use it cause I couldn't get drivers for my graphics card. Mint is great, it is based off Ubuntu but it runs tons better. I like Gnome 3 with the mintMenu on the bottom but right now I'm using MATE, pretty much the same except I can easily edit the panel and menu and shit. I tried out Cinnamon, it was good too but I couldn't edit the panel, wouldn't let me right click it.

That sounds bougus. You can always boot from a DVD with an operating system on it an wipe your HDD. Get Super Grub disc btw it solves loads of problems.

I'm not paying for a OS and I don't know how to burn one onto a disc. So don't tell me what's "bougus" and what's not.

Just burn linux/backtrack and wipe your HDD. You do not need to pay a dime. Okay maybe for the DVD you're burning it onto.
