When all of your hardware is supported linux can install as easy as Win95, WinNT, or OS/2. But it has a shorter compatibility list. : 1) You make two disks... : 2) Then run the setup program... : 3) Install it (30 Mins on quick mode) : 4) Reboot computer and enjoy! True, but then configure X. Add some user accounts. Edit etc/fstab so you can access the floppy drive ... These things are more difficult under linux due to its UNIX heritage.
