Consider Knoppix which is linux on CD.
If SUSE could develope a small personal version which does not load to
disk and had OO and GIMP they might get out there more often. Expecially
if the GIMP had good simple instructions to do photo editing and tools
for downloading from digital cameras.

As to grandma using it, yes she probably can, but to do a install I
doubt it. Hell I have been a tech for years and I had problems with 8.0
and some of the accessories attached, ie printers, modems, scanners,
etc. If it were not for the good people on this list and others I might
not have switched. With each version it becomes easier to install as
more and more hardware is auto recognized and configured. this is not to
say that windoze works out of the box all the time either, for if it did
I would not make a living. Yet I see the time soon when linux will give
M$S a real run for the money and I want be betting on Empire Maker.
Last thing I will say is that I wish SuSE could flood the market with
copies of live-eval like AOL does so that more people would at least
give it a try.
