[pchelpers] Re: New to Linux OS

I tried installing Red Hat and Mandrake but they never worked on my 
system for some odd reason.  I had better success with Ubuntu and it's 
easy to use and navigate.  I'm very happy with it.  As for security 
software, unless it specifically says it will on Linux, there's a good 
chance it may not work.  I don't think you'll need any though.  Linux is 
far more secure as it is, so much so I only use a firewall in Ubuntu and 
that's it.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
