Great thought on the Windows world not being compatible with Linux. And since I have not installed and played with it yet, I can't respond on the rest but will check out the Google link. Thanks!
But this is how most Computer users want to get a Car "Or Computer". For Linux to grow and be used by Newbie's it has to look appealing, work like its suppose to, and be easy to use. I too am new to this and have been dealing with Windows and Windows networks for years. And I am tired of Viruses, spyware, and the co$t of EVERYTHING that has to do with Windows.
But the problem I see is compatibility with the "Windows" world. I am in IT and have problems keeping Windows programs compatible with everyone else in and out of my orginization.
I am downloading my first copies of Ubuntu for workstation and server to start playing with and welcome all advice I can get, especially on how to connect a Ubuntu workstation to the Ubuntu server. Later I would like to know about how Windows workstation and server can enter into all this.
But keeping to the point, please list the cool stuff newbie's would like to know?
