There seem to be many reviews on Red Hat 9.0, but all seem to be written by Linux junkies who really know their stuff. What about the MS Windows Convert? They say people like the first thing they use (i.e. if you learn to drive a manual transmission, you prefer it over automatic). If this is true, how does Red Hat 9.0 introduce a novice pc user to the world of computers? I hope to answer some of those questions in this tiny review.

This sentiment might have been expressed before. Installation isn't the problem with linux. Some distros make it ugly, some make it beautiful. All of the ones I have seen make it pretty much a matter of clicking next a few dozen times and waiting, unless you want to do something tricky like a dual boot system.
The hard part is installing applications that require anything other than what comes with the default distro.
