Why Linux? To start with it isn't MS which is a mighty plus point. It's free (no bolstering the coffers of a certain Redmond company) and the security is far better since people (many of them) look for bugs and problems. I use Ubuntu (have done since Badger was released) and while some things are a bit puzzling, it's no harder than any other OS so the idea that Linux is only for serious techofiles is all wrong. I'm picking up bits and pieces about it but I'm still at the stage where most stuff needs spelling out patiently. Which means I hope I don't drive you all nuts asking lots of questions.

Greetings, Bev, and welcome!
Just so that you know, we're all nuts already, partly because of the problems we ask questions about, partly because of the answers we receive, and partly, well, just because ...
So just join in!
Best wishes, Ted.
