Oh they will.
It will last about ten minutes and then they will be back to Windows.

Seeing a free Linux CD is like a *Wet Paint* sign.
Most people just have to test the waters and then when their fingers are
covered in fresh paint they get pissed off.
Or in the context of Linux, when they see how much it sucks, they toss the
CD in the trash.

Linux=free=10+ years
Linux desktop market = 0.6 percent or so.

Pathetic...

Re: [News] GNU/Linux Live CDs Come with Yet Another Book

Well at least we know there is one person here that doesnt have a clue as to
anything about Linux. they have a great community. Just look at the Ubuntu
Forums where a question is answered almost immediately and updates put out
daily.

Do us all a favor and stop posting this Linux stuff in a Windows area.

So, if Linux and OSS is so bad, why do you and your family use it?
