(Mint) Linux demo finally uploaded to Youtube!

Post by Jedinovice »

OK, finally finished this! I have put together a video demo of Mint Linux in action. No talk, only action. I got sick of talking heads on youtube and no visual demos.

Located here:
https://youtu.be/Q8hDYiGprWs

This took an annoyingly long time to piece together mind. So long that I started with Mint 13, went to Mint 16 during it's creation and then Mint 17 took over after I compiled the video. So it's a little out of date but not so anyone would notice.

This is intended to be an introduction for those considering (Mint) Linux. I demo Mint KDE edition. It's the only DE I use and, personally, I reckon the best for those jumping from Windows. I know that can be argued but I'll let the demo speak for KDE"s ease of use. I don't even deal with the keyboard shortcuts.

The demo covers – briefly (I wanted breadth and not depth):

Starting Linux apps
Running Windows Apps (I demo Word 2010)
Internet – because we all know computers = the internet
Graphics – because all Mac owners know no computer is worth anything without Photoshop…
Games – though briefly as my netbooks won't handle games really
Legacy DOS apps
Installing software – because we all know you can only install software in Linux by compiling from source...
Video editing – just to show free software is cool software!

Take a look and pass onto those considering Linux or just doubting Windows/Mac.
And onto those who INSIST Linux means a DIY OS!

And I do want to see 'Enterprise' series 5. The right series at just the wrong time… when everyone was Trekked out after TNG, DS9 and VOY back to back.

Thanks, Jedinovice. I just watched the video, and it's very nice. I posted it on my Facebook page.
