Allright, so I know this has been covered in a couple egss and forum posts, but I still have a few questions.

I maybe plan on switching to linux when I get my new computer. But why is linux better? What versions or distrubutions are the best? Should I delete windows or run a dual OS? How do I partition my hard drive to run a dual OS? How do I uninstall windows if I am going all linux? Is linux hard to use? Should I use knoppix to try it? I need info!!

Srry about my n00bieness, but I am sure people on here know more then I do about it

My brother runs linux, he does it a cool way. He turns off his computer, pops the cd in, and it runs linux.

Yes I know, Windows sucks, but it is better than Linux, In my opinoin (if you are used to using Windows that is)

Now, just for the hell of it: Linux is gay
