  • Muskaburnt, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1good story, its annoying when me and my friends talk about linux, and their excuse for not installing is thats its too complicated or dificult to run linux
  • aautopsy, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Honestly, my six year old brother could install ubuntu. You just have to click next 5 times. Its cool that Linux is so easy to install, but not baffling that your son could do it.
  • rockon4life45, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Good article and point but misleading title. He didn't put together a computer from parts he just plugged in a monitor, mouse and keyboard. But the main point of the article being that the install took only about 20 minutes after a few of plugging stuff in. Go Ubuntu!
