3. Yes and yes, but I wouldn't recommend Ubuntu as an OS

Edited on Wed Oct-12-05 05:12 PM by jim3775

I would recommend the just-released SUSE 10.0. It has a better design, its easier to use as a desktop, its more robust and full-featured, easier install, better configuration tool, nicer look and better hardware recognition.

I was impressed with Ubuntu but SUSE 10 is superior as a windows replacement.

It's easier to set-up an internet connection (especially ADSL, no pppoeconf), it's easier to install packages with SUSE (no apt-get), it's easier to install updates with SUSE. And is MUCH MUCH easier for newbies to get into.
