I am looking to get Linux for my MacBook (inb4 macfag); however, I'm not sure what will happen. I'm not very educated when it comes to computers and their inner machinations. I heard there are different distros (themes? of Linux) that offer different things. I'm tired of OSX and making this purchase; kind of turning my laptop into something else by doing this. What I'm wondering is what will happen to all my data on this operating system/user/whatever. What are some good distros and do you have any tips for a macfag switching over to Linux? what will I expect? what should I prepare for?
shameless bump pls I need some assistance
please OSX is tearing me apart, Lisa!

>what distro should I use?
Ubuntu or Linux Mint every time
> what will happen to all my data?
As far as I know, you need to have a thumb drive if you want to transfer files from osx to Linux. Everything will br deleted from osx unless you wish to still have both OSes on your mac

1, Linux Mint. Ubuntu a shit
2. If you wont to properly use the command line, pick up(pirate) the book "the LINUX command line - complete introduction".
It's on kickass, and dont install a torrent because Linux already comes with one.
