Mark,
As you have witnesses, this group is filled with disruptive posters whose
intent is to sabotage Linux. As Nessuno suggested, post the same question to
a technical group where the 'noise' levels are lower. For what it's worth, a
friend of mine who is your age (and hasn't much experience in computing)
switched from Windows to Ubuntu Linux two days ago. It's simpler than ever
nowdays. And it's rewarding.
Best wishes,
Roy
