Fellow INGO dudes and dudettes:
What can you tell me about your experience with Linux OSs? There is a plethora of technincal information on the Web so that's not exactly what I am looking for (though I will not turn it down). I want to know what your experience as a user has been, particularly compared to the Windows OSs (XP, Vista, and 7).
1. Why did you make the jump to Linux?
2. Which distro did you choose and why?
3. Did it satisfy the reason for change?
4. What did you learn?
5. What did you not like?
6. How would you compare Linux's management of settings to Windows' Control Pannel if there is even such a thing and if it is a fair comparison?
7. Which distro would you recommend for a home user who needs no more than Internet browsing and some processing programs comparable to Microsoft Office and is mainly concerned with fast efficient running of programs?
8. Anything else you would like to add?
As always, your advice and input is greatly appreciated.
