yeah, ubuntu will be fine
once you're more comfortable with linux then you can move to another distro if you want

>>52179554
But you won't get it like that with normal unity, right? He needs to install openbox as well? Or can you get it like that in unity?
>>
>>52179554
Okay i downloaded the ubuntu thing and now I'm on the ubuntu menu, but it says i need a cd or usb to install it but i don't have any of those at the moment is there a way to install ubuntu without any of those?
>>
>>52179596
he'll have to install openbox
everything you see in op pic: openbox, tint2, compton (for shadows), urxvt, ncmpcpp, ahoviewer, dunst
>>52179612
are you really sure you're ready for linux if you can't even figure that out?
>>
>>52179596
As long as he get rid of unity bar and replace it with tint2 all those window decoration are achievable on unity

you could use a virtual machine
or, doesn't ubuntu have an installer that lets you install it from inside windows like a normal program? at least, it did years ago the last time I used it

You might want a USB or a CD to do that... But do you know what you are installing? Great to have someone installing Linux for the first time and everyone can do it. But you need to read the instructions carefully and you need to take backup of all your files first in case you mess up or something happens during install. You can dual boot it so that you either choose Windows or Linux when you start it. I assume that is what you want. In that case read the instructions on the Ubuntu page.

It is fairly simple, but it's still something you need to prepare for first by saving the files you want on a USB or something, just in case. And you need a USB or something else that Ubuntu can boot from.

Your desktop looks really good. How can I make the windows look as good as that on Debian GNOME? Is it necessary to install Openbox in it?
>>
>>52184369
that would obviously be the easiest way
