I am with your mother...I have really tried with Linux.. I have had my
linux buddy install 8-10 different distributions. I believe its an
excellent
OS but I get my mind hits a impentrable brick wall when it comes to
ever getting to grips with it. The great beauty of BeOS is that it was
and
is the most friendly user friendly system. However as an ex refuge from
windupows I have never managed to understand the Terminal. Like
most average users i really need a friendly front end over the fabulous
workings below.
