I have some questions on Linux, its growing popularity and on the
recommendation of friends has made me think about giving it a go. I have had
a computer for awhile now, and I have never had anything but windows, I am
keen to try this system, but am not willing to sacrifice my current one only
to be disapointed, so here are my questions.

1. Is linux user friendly? One thing about windows is that it is designed
for people who want a user friendly interface, so that is a big question
that I would like answered.
2. How much work needs to be done until I can be happy with Linux?i.e how
much configuring is there?
3. Is it worth it? I have no real problems with my current system but would
like to try Linux.
4.How does the Internet run on Linux?

Anyone who could answer these questions I would be most grateful.
