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.

Actually, I'm mostly impressed with linux. I said I was an experienced Windows user, and that's true. But I'm not an experienced Linux user. I know how to setup partitions, and I knew that linux required a swap partition. That's about it.
It's completely possible I had a hardware error regarding the Open Office thing. My gripe was more with the error messages presented then the fact I received an error.
And that was the first time I'd ever run the RH update. I had no idea how long it was supposed to take. I'd never updated anything on linux before, or even installed an application. I had no clue.
I may try another linux distribution later, but only after I'm done playing around with RH 9.0. My favorite part thus far - the nifty screensavers.
