Passing out them linux
cd's...Well, you just got the lastest linux cd and it just bowled you over. Hardware detection just could not have been better. Beryl, emerald themes! You are thinking this is great! Wow, I just gotta show off Joe that ol' Windows user is just about to cry uncle with all the spyware, viri, trojans, bogging down his pc. You whip out the cd like Hollywood gun slinger! As always, they just give you that strange look like you just stepped off the turnip wagon. You go in to the whole routine that the cd is a live cd. It won't wipe out the hard drive unless you want it to. Or, you can install it, dual boot it so you can keep windows and still use it if you need to. Leaving Joe, you feel like a super hero that just came to his rescue. About a month or so later, you run back in to Joe. How are you coming along with that linux cd I gave you?
Joe says: I never tryed it out.
