Hi,
I have been using windoze for ten years. I am moving away from
windoze now and have got
suse 7, mandrake 7 & 7.1, corel 1 & 1.2 R H 6 & 6.2
I find linux very easy to install and run, the only problem I am
having is installing software.
I have a scanner which I would love to use under linux and an ide
cd burner and a logitech quickcam express which I can not get
any software for, which makes it hard for me.
By the way windoze is not idiot proff, but their is a lot more
surport for windoze and this makes a difference to the
average computer user who just wants to play games
and surf the net.
Linux blows windoze out of the water.
Regards Anthony Daniell
