[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 688371, member: 1963"] I've used a few GUIs for business Unix, but have never used Linux. Unix is a PITA to install, configure, etc. Frankly, while I date back to before DOS, let alone Windows, and I can still do it from the command line, I'd as soon not do so if I don't have to. I had a look in the BIOS and even that is locked down. Luckily, I have both tech support from Dell and Avast including remote support, so I can have someone Citrix in and fix stuff. I also plan on going through the manuals I got. One is a "dummies sort of guide, and the other is hard-core. I figure between the two books, and a lot of tinkering (IF this OS allows tinkering) I should be able to figure out how to get into the nuts and bolts. [/QUOTE]
