During the majority of my time working with computers, Windows was the operating system of choice. Reason being, it's all I've known. In 2002, I took a college course titled "Linux Administration" which entitled me to a few cd-roms of Redhat 7.x. While this course was nothing more than a few extra credits for me, I fell in love with Linux and went through the entire textbook a week into the class. It was a nice feeling to use something "different" than what I was used to.

good points I suggest you go and try out Linspire...
I currently run Suse 9.1 Mepis beta and Linspire.
I think what you are talking about ease of software install and dependancies is totally covered with CNR in Linspire...
you will find the system slow in current version 4.5 of Linspire compared to Suse 9.1 but it wont be long till a comaprable product will be released from Lindows Inc.
There is nothing that even comes close to CNR for ease of installation and update of software the actual OS itself etc. It even has Isles with the apps you have installed previously (if you do a fresh install of the OS .. which only takes 10 minutes the dfastest OS install bar none)
I am not suggesting that you use Linspire but that you look at the CNR click n run system and comment back..
It is a joy to use
