Hey, I LOVE MS! You're touting Apple over it?? Geez, have you checked Apple's prices lately? and over the years? Talk about closing out the ordinary guy! Say what you wil about Mr. Gates, at least he helped drive prices for computers down and quality up.:)
Opensource is great and I'm glad it's available. but Microsoft has made me more productive by far. I'd like to see Linux become friendlier, though. and run all my current apps. Until that time, afraid it's just a passing fancy. Also, if you could recommend a user frinedly/Windows clone Linux distro, which would it be? that's the key. show me where it is, I'll try it. BTW, I've tried Mandrake and Knoppix. Long installs on both, kludgy interfacs and LOOOOOOONG boot/startup times.

Colin, read the article. Thanks.:0)
Well, it's all about competition.:) Pushing and refining Linux makes MS more creative and Windows better and vice-versa.:) Consumers are the winners.:)
Again, which distro of Linux would you recommend for a newbie like me? For Home use mostly.:) Thanks.:)
