(A Rubik's Cube because it's puzzling. OK?)
And now the bit where we turn to you, the wise crowd, for answers, for the first of (we hope) a series, where your answers could appear in print. If they're good/useful enough.
This week's question: a not particularly computer-literate friend of yours tells you one day that he's heard so much about Linux that he's decided to install it on his Windows machine. You know that his machine is a few years old, though you don't know if it's XP or Vista. He's come to you for some more advice about what he should do.
What do you recommend that he does? Do you suggest a particular Linux distro? Or a plan of attack? Or that he run (perhaps screaming) from it? Or something else?
Over to you.
