I'm planning on buying a new pc (custom built). I was thinking
about going with Linux instead of having Windows installed. (and use
some free office product instead of microsoft's). My purpose is
partly to save money but mostly to avoid microsoft.
Currently I use Win98, Office97, FireFox & Thunderbird and I use
dialup. I use it only for personal purposes. I have medium
experience with computers (10+ years as an end-user only).
Could I adjust to a Linux product fairly easily? Which kind
(distribution) is the friendlinest or the most Windows-like? Are
there links that could help me decide? Is there a newsgroup or
forum where this question would be more appropriate?
Thanks in advance.
