But do you think, that LINUX is so simple to install, like OS/2? I use
LINUX, too. But when I think back, what problems I had, to install X on
my personal System with that worse documentation of the monitor, I only
can think : Oh God!
Personal, I think, that LINUX is a great thing, but the configuration of
LINUX is not very simple. The installaion of the system - yes, but you
have not so many documentation, to make it simple to use for "normal"
user.
