I have done two things... i've got a laptop without a working CD-rom drive, so i installed Debian on that... getting the GUI working tonight... please work... pitty i cant get knoppix on it... dont have a stick...

i also have mandrake (or what every the new name is called now) on the main computer (the faster one)... just trying it... its ok... i dont like its updating thing... i think i like debians apt-get install function in the command promt... dont know why... but seems less messy???

btw, i still use knoppix for anyone wanting to know... its been great fun...

Chris-Harry,

amazing just how easy it is to get someone to switch to Linux, huh? Either that, or its just amazing how easy it is to get Windows screwed up... Anyway, I must admit, the horns are showing, there, Chris-Harry, just a little... Maybe, its time to buy your pitch-fork, and red suit?

I am quite sure they will "transition" just fine, just keep them away from the Command Line, and some of those Linux Cryptic Commands, and let them roam around the GUI for a while - they might just realize that Linux is pretty close to the same look-n-feel, of Windows? Maybe after a week, or so, you can give 'em the ol' "Memorex or Live" test? Is it "Windows", or is it "Linux"?

Anywho, people are resistant to change, and, will fight it with as much strength as they can, to avoid it... Once they get used to it, they usually find, the change is oftern better than the previous. More often than not, once the change gets over its "new-ness", most people wouldnt go back to the original way, or thing.

Hope everything turns out, for you, and the family,
Ms. Cuddles

To make the Windows to Knoppix transition easier, get the appropriate image from the following link and set it as the windows wallpaper. Once they get used to it, then you can boot them into knoppix and they would barely know the difference. It just wouldn't crash as much and might seem faster overall.

I got yelled at for running Knoppix when someone saw the Knoppix backround on my windows machine. They finally realized it was still windows, but it looked better!
