Starting to get the kinks worked out and doing normal life stuff on new OS. Hopefully I'll tell microsoft to piss off one day.

Update on my keyboard issue: When the boot select screen comes up the Linux Mint is the first option, if I let it do its little countdown for 8 seconds and it boots into linux everything is fine. However, if I don't wait the 8 seconds and I just push enter to expedite things to boot faster then my keyboard does not work. I have tested this numerous times with the same results. I guess I am learning to be more patient now!!

Right now I am just pretty happy that it is up and running stable. I have most of my passwords and bookmarks moved over and my keyboard and sound has worked all night tonight. I'm calling that success. i have made a backup of the current state in case it goes to hell. I"ll start delving into the technical stuff when I am sure it's going to keep running well. Appreciate the tips! I anticipate posting in when I get going.
