Juno on Linux

[Jim Herrmann]

I'm thinking of converting my mother to Linux, since she recently got a 
"worm virus" on her Windoze computer.  The thing is, she uses the Juno 
free service.  Has anyone heard of a Linux user using Juno, and if there 
are any problems with that arrangement.  If I do this, I suspect she 
won't be able to get support from the local geeks near her small town in 
east central Kansas, so it's got to be rock solid.

Any input on Juno, or any other issues I should be made aware of for 
converting a mostly non technical person to Linux.  She has been using 
computers for many years starting with an Epson back in the eighties, a 
Commodore 64, a couple of laptops, and has finally bought a used desktop 
PC that I think is fairly current.  So, she is not the typical seventy 
year old PC newbie.  She can hack some problems if she has some support.

Suggestions, comments, any other input is welcome.

Peace,
Jim Herrmann
