Nah, I should probably try it again for real. I’m sure it has come a long way in almost 25 years. I just haven’t had the time of im being serious.

Well, last time I installed it it was easier than Windows. I put it on my Dad's computer and it just works with his printer etc.

I’ll give it another shot. What distribution would you suggest for someone just starting out? I know that’s a polarizing question.

Can't go wrong with Linux Mint. It works pretty much like Windows so there's little relearning needed.

Good stuff! I’ll give it a go. Thanks!
