I presume its point and click with a mouse - if it involved learning DOS type commandments (surely not) then that would be disastrous.

Betsy Og said:Am I to take it that Linux is techies only?? - which seems a bit of a shame if its supposed to be a user interface. The beauty of windows over DOS is that any eejit can point and click without needing to know how things are done.
Surely that didnt escape linux designers
I think this line sums it up nicely. Betsy Og: if you have a broadband line then running XP Pro with service pack 2 pulling automatic updates along with a firewall and regularly updated antivirus software should be ok however I suspect you should be looking to buy an iMAC (or iBook/PowerBook) with MS Office preinstalled and a three year warranty and forget all that Linux/Windows stuff.BlueSpud said:If you dont know the answer, then Linux is not the answer...............
