Im sorry about posting "why bother". Plz disregard the statement.I was refernig to LayMen who knows only that a PC means Intel & Windows. No disrespect/offence to any Linux users.

Now onto my original and only query. I want to try Linux not because I hate windows but because I know that there's something better out there that I can use to put my resources to efficent use.

For me ignorance is not bliss. In todays world one cannot afford to be ignorant.

Plz suggest on the original query. And I AM 100% N00b in concern to Liunx OS

I'll be getting my repaired HDD of 500Gigs soon. I was thinking to install XP SP2, & Fedora (Fedora-8-dvd-i386) w/compiz/beryl, and Vista Ultimate on it. it feaseable?

would it be smooth transistion from using years of using Windows GUI and now shifting to Linux?

Any other Linux should i start off with, cuase ive read that Fedora is much more "welcoming" to ignorant windows users

thats one good trait of urs, never despise it, for natural selection holds for those who learn to change and change to revolutionize.

Widescreen > i fell ubuntu is much more easier ! you can easily install apps using inbuilt package manager which shows programs with ratings and nice description !
also ubuntu comes with compiz fusion install option

in ubuntu when you try to play Mp3 for the first time it asks you to install necessary codecs from internet .. just do it ! and you are done !

and there are wondeful tutorials to install compiz fusion on ubuntu
also setting up internet is very easy on ubuntu .. infact easier then Windows !


may be fed core is also easy .. but i feel you must go for ubuntu !

I think it's time this thread be closed because firstly no one is on topic anymore and @iMav seems interested only in saying crap like Linus Torvalds is not a famous personality so his product is a failure and what not! I think we've seen enough of this cr@p:cool:
