By the way, a nice thing about Ringo's suggestion is that you can try Ubuntu without installing it. (That is, you can run it directly off the CD, without touching your hard drive.) So you can check how well your hardware (e.g. printers) work before deciding whether or not you want to install it for real. http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu This site's really good at explaining what GNU/Linux is: http://www.getgnulinux.org/ If you get stuck with anything, there's probably a GNU/Linux user group nearby: http://www.linux.org/groups/ > On Fri, Feb 22, 2008 at 3:29 PM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Monday, 5 days ago, I came home with a new computer loaded with > > Vista, and I have been on it almost constantly trying to figure it > > out, neither of my printers work with it -- I am desperate and want > > my old XP version of Windows back -- is that possible or should I > > box the thing up and take it back to Office Depot?
