... I'm running an Ubuntu desktop on a Linux based operating system. It's an operating system like Windows and Mac (except it's free), and the software centre is basically thousands of free programs I can install if I want them...

but all non-standard, and MS Windows has millions of progs. :-)

I don't like Windows. :]

[kevinlomas]

well it does help when you are trying to do 'normal' things, to use 'normal' things.

[acsmith]

:] However I can't use 'normal' things if I don't know how.

(I don't understand Windows)

I use Linux Kubuntu and have open office. It basically has all the fonts that Word has and worked well for me. I just save my text file as a word doc.so I can share it with others who have Windows.

Indeed. Not hard is it :-)
