No more MS Windows


Just wanted to say I have just installed Fedora 7 which is a Redhat distribution of the GNU/Linux operating system. No more Microsoft Windows on my PC. No more MS Office, No more licencing, error messages, freezing.

Best of all it is all free. Took me 10 hrs to set everything up, and get it all tweaked back to the way I had the Windaz XP.

It wasn't easy for me being more of a hardware person. Although, the help available when searching and looking through the Fedora forums is amazing. That made it much less of a difficult job.
