Re: something tells me...
@ a_yank_lurker - and not only that, linux has plenty of desktop interfaces to choose from, including ones that have that nice, old, intuiotive look and feel that is so familiar - unlike the later versions of Windows.
Yup, choose Linux to get a desktop like the desktop you've known and loved for years. Never thought I'd be saying THAT one day!
Incidentally, an old couple that asked me to help them go Linux on a second hand PC have taken to it like a duck to water. Does everything they need, less hassle, and far far cheaper than buying a new Windows PC. Zero problems finding their way around the desktop, too (last thing they;d been usingwas XP). I'm actually startled that they;ve needed NO help from me, I was expecting at least a handful of queries re minor things, but nope. Another win for Mint!
