what do you mean; its incapable of showing blue screens
come on man, even a 7 year old can install linux if he has'nt 
used anything else. the problem is dual boot people don't 
wanna let go of garbage (windows)

hehe my  mother uses gnome she likes it better then winblows
father is already a unix head
my brother prefers gcc+vim to turbo c++ IDE for his class 11
c++ progs


you are right winblows is present everywhere like a "global
variable"

but we should not let the young people get into winblows cuz if
you give tiny tots linux as there first O.S let it
be a GUI to start with he will definately like to learn 
things and learn the right things faster.

when you give a kid a rich Environment. he will learn 
and mature very quickly
