ECE264 Students: you must consider this!

There is a program out there that actually simplifies partitioning space on your hard drive and sets up ubuntu.
Ubuntu offers Kate a great editor for programmer as well as a clean interface.
Ubuntu also makes you work with terminal for the most part. I switched to Ubuntu because I can properly debug with it instead of relying on putty.
Debugging with gdb is like taking a plane vs. walking to Los Angelos according to prof Lu.
