Windows is many times better than it was eight years ago. The same is probably
true with Linux and BSD.

That is a difficult question to answer. There are over 400 Linux distributions
to choose from.

Take this small test to help determind which of them are right for you:

Note: If you decide on Linspire please be sure to add a restricted user account
and use the default root user account sparingly.

Note: If you decide on Ubuntu, you might check out the Automatix script. While I
havent tried it yet, it has greatly simplifed the already simple setup/configure
process for many users.
