  1. I kinda thought that I could use Windows programs with Linux.... and I guess you can with an emulator named Wine.

    To clear up a misconception, Wine Is Not an Emulator. That's what wine stands for. Besides that you seem to be doing alright. Like many people have already said I recommend starting with Ubuntu. If you're already attached to the Cinnamon desktop environment you might want to try Linux Mint, a derivative of Ubuntu, as your distro. Just make sure you use the driver manager to install the proprietary drivers and you should be running in no time.

  2. last time i use ubuntu there was an driver manager that would instal proprietary drivers automatically. i cant remember what it was called or where to get to it but its in there. i have since switched to mint on my linux boxen.

    There is. It's in settings under software settings if I recall correctly. You should just be able to search for it.
