I agree with Peter. However, installing Linux on a home machine for people that need to use it for simplistic functions 
may be taking it a bit too far. 

I am one of those people. I have a young son, and I am always making a big deal about software and OSs. Not because am 
biased towards particular applications. I want my son to become aware of all the current technology.

Maybe it will not turn him into Einstein, but I want him (again) to be more educated, beyond cartoonnetwork.

As far as installing Linux, my ex wife is computer illirate and Ubuntu was my first choice for a safe and easy to use!
