from what I understand he has it on all their other computers, her laptop got a virus so it had to be reformatted and so he suggested putting on Linux so her chance of getting a virus is reduced.
I'm on Ubuntu right now, so far I've noticed that web pages load slower than in Vista (both on FF) and it's very user friendly *if* you like it as is, I actually think I would've put this on my grandparents laptop (their first computer) when we got it for them last year if I had to teach them again. I've been trying to add VLC as a test but I can't just go to the site and d/l it, I have to do some wierd shit in Synaptic Package Manager to d/l anything but I cant find VLC in there. now I'm downloading 204 updates, which seems kinda retarded as I downloaded the latest .iso from the site so you'd think they'd put the latest updates in there, I guess not. the MSN replacements suck ass too, and somehow it manages to get an 80% connection to my neighbors router when Vista could only get 10%. which is wierd. so I think later I'm gonna try the Fedora Live CD and check that out.
