Welcome, Paul,
If you've been working with PC's since the days of DOS, and if you're
anything like me, you'll find Linux to be a breath of fresh air.
I know as I began to learn my way around Linux, it was like all of the
good things that have changed in computing since the days of DOS
without all the crud.
Things that need to be complex are, of course, complex (who can we
kid? computers are complex.), and anything that can be simple is. It's
refreshing.
Not to mention, I still have an affinity for the command-line, so
while there was a slight learning curve going from "dir" to "ls", from
"ren" to "mv", etc. learning my way around the bash shell was like
going from a club to a light saber.
Out of curiosity, what is it that brought you to the decision that you
need a new OS?
