Re: linux

Not really gonna happen, most all distros of linux require some command line stuff to install most programs, but most of it is pretty easy to learn. With that being said Mandrake and Fedora are somewhat easy to get started. Just learn to use YUM. YUM is your freind.

Re: linux

It's not DOS, is linux. Anyway most all distros come with an xwindows interface (KDE and GNOME) if that's all your wanting.

Re: linux

easiest distro to get running is probably Ubuntu.
download a Live CD and you can boot and run from it to try it out.
you dont need to do an install that way.
