I would agree except that most people who have NEVER used Linux simply aren't going to quit Windows cold turkey...no matter how much we wish they would.

I've been giving away Knoppix CDs so people can "try before they buy"....so to speak.

Knoppix

HOWEVER....Ubuntu DOES have the same "try before you buy feature". I've had people tell me that Knoppix is a little less intimidating though.

With the likes of Ubuntu being available, I really fail to see why ANYBODY suffers through MS-Windows anymore.
