It really not any more difficult once a "newbie" gets the build installed - that's the rub, so to speak. If you've ever experienced say, a BeOS installation (with or without partioning), you will see how a real installation should behave. The newer "Linux for Windows" builds like Phat, Armed & WinLin2000 currently offer the easiest way to experience, learn and use Linux without going thru some of the more intimidating stuff. Oh, and the idiot who posted "Linux should stay exclusive - we don't want trash off the street" - I hope your @#$&^$ system blows up!!!
