More and more of these types of articles are appearing.

This shows how easy linux is to install. The distro was PCLinuxOS but I bet others (eg Ubuntu) would be as easy. I am amazed at the progress in user friendliness in the last two years. The main remaining headache imo is with wireless support.

There we go, picking on (cough) 'Cave Men' again. Actually it's nice that 'Dr' John got it booted without incident, although that's what 90+% of people do with pretty much all the n00b Distros.

One question to richo123. Why did you link the storie to 'ubuntu' in groups, when it's PCLOS they're talking about???
Could be force of habit, or better yet, so easy an Ubuntu user could do it *evil grin*
Would Ubuntu users know which end of the screw driver to hold?
Quoting:So why is this seen by many (mostly journos) as such a complex thing? I don't know. It works. The price is right.


Sorry to see him pick on the 'Cave men', but may be the Journos (as he calls them) and NBMers would finally get the message.
PCLOS is actually targeting cavemen :)

Funny though...with that, I figured we'd have snagged JimF by now :D

In your dreams.
Jimf, sorry my error. My caveman side got the better of me I could have sworn I had tagged it as pclos (????).
