Linux This may not be news for the experienced Linux users here, but for those who are new to Linux, someone sent me a link to this new online Linux magazine geared towards new Linux users. The magazine is published by the same company as publishes the Linux Journal, it is well laid out and is free to subscribe to.

Well these days I would say that Ubuntu is definately the prevailing Linux disto (even for newbs). Actually 2 of the 3 most popular distros are Gnome focused. I think most newbs prefer KDE only becasue it has a "start" menu on the bottom left by default anyway.

I tested this with my GF and she seemed pretty content with Gnome after I moved some of the panels around.

Oh!, and I almost forgot to add "And disabled that Spatial BS.."
