I'm not picking a fight with those who want a linux distro to play with (that's why I started a new thread), but does it make sense for someone to go to linux if they don't want to play with it?
I have installed linux in the past to try it out but I'm no longer interested in being a techie at home. I just want to use my PC: for email, browsing, Skype, internet radio, basic office stuff, and photo manipulation. And of course playing music, extracting MP32, and burning CDs.
I'd love to dump M$ for the tulip they've given me over the years (anyone want to buy a paid-for copy of Windows ME ?) but is there any other reason to switch to linux on my own machine?
