    Yes, but just wait for that update that removes the option to turn off secure digital content. Then all your media will be wma and you will not

  5. Re:Yes on Making Linux Look Harder Than It Is · · Score: 2, Insightful

    As soon as you say "install" you are beyond what most people want to know. But I've found a Redhat install to be very easy. But, I know to pop into the bios and change/check the boot sequence. Most users don't know what a bios is, and don't even THINK about trying to explain what a bios is, It get's into areas that just cannot be explained without a wider context. This is where you may end up sounding arrogant. You say it's "magic", because most people just don't have the basic knowledge about systems to understand any explination you could give. Anyway once you get a Redhat 7.2 install going the default Workstation install is pretty easy. As far as disk partitioning, I usually just let the installer do what it wants (with a virgin disk this is fine.) With a 50x cd rom and a 1 gig hz box it's all over in 15 minutes.
