I installed linux on my laptop and battled with it for a few days, didn't get wlan to work, then I didn't get it to recognize my 2gig ram etc etc etc.. I never thought I'd admit it, but windows is a decent piece of software. I've gotten dumb. When I played around with dos 5.0 and editing config.sys and autoexec.bat to free enough memory to launch some game, I still knew how computers work. Now I couldn't figure linux out. Windows has made things too easy. lol
