I've just installed Suse Linux 9.3 on my spare PC and compared with any version of Windows(yes,I include WinME) it's been a nightmare!
After about 90 minutes of watching an installer which is about as imformative as a tax form,I was greeted with an interface which was about as reassuring as the screen on a Fisher Price toy TV.
I've given up trying to connect to the internet,the process is as clear as mud.
Bill Gates...all is forgiven ,theres no competition in my books. All I want is an OS that does what I need without me having to consult some well meaning enthusiasts on a second PC with an OS that REALLY works.
Me,I'm sticking with XP,it just works
