Re: Linux

<ben>How difficult is Linux? Why should I go with Linux as opposed to
Windows?
If I build on Windows initially, then decide on Linux, will I waste a lot
of time restructuring? If I go with Linux, which program is best?</ben>

Put it this way "Linnux Geek" is a redundant statement, and "simple Linnux"
is an oxymoron :>)

Appologies in advance to Linnux people out there, but true linnux people
will consider this a compliment!
