On top of that, I don't know linux all that well. I probably couldn't make it through an installation without help. However, I ran linux on my computer for the first time about a week or two ago when slashdot did the story on the Knoppix live on cd distro of linux. So I downloaded my first linux ISO and popped it in the drive for boot-up and my god thats magic! I was running linux, into a perty window manager, and all of my hardware was set up in less time than it takes my win2k to boot up. If you guys are trying to impress windows users, that Knoppix is quite the demonstration.
P.S. Yes I know this wasnt technically a full linux installation but I'd say its pretty close, I mean I was running linux, isn't that the point of an installation?
So the guy using the ATM that you're lined up for drops a $50 bill: "Hey buddy, you dropped 50 bucks." Is this deserving of kudos? Well maybe it is, especially if the alternative is slapping him with a lawsuit for littering...
