Ubuntu â good enough for grannies and girlfriends

,----[ Quote ]
| My girlfriend, who is in no way interested in computers or open 
| source, now complains about having to use Windows in university, 
| because Ubuntu is so much easier and faster to use.  I can 
| imagine the same story is playing out all over the world.  
| Hopefully at least :-)

| When I got back from doing that, I got a phone call from one of 
| my sisters. I had given her my momâs old machine with Ubuntu 
| Linux installed on it, and she had a bunch of questions. I was 
| able to answer all but two of them. Those two I had no experience 
| with. Her first question was how do you install a printer driver
| on Linux? I had her bring up the Printers support dialog and her 
| printer was already there. She was amazed, considering her 
| experience with Windows on that subject.
