Linux does not come with the Windows package, infact when I was in training we had all of two small chapters on Linux.
So your training was somewhat deficient. There is MUCH more to computers than windoz. In fact, more beneficial understanding would have come from two small chapters on windoz and the rest on ANYTHING else.
Well believe it our not those two little chapters stured my interest, if not for those chapters I would never had downloaded Linux, I had to see it for myself. The other in class failed those chapters, but to my surprise I studied as hard as I could adn played around with Linux and I made 98% on both, my instructor was flooried and so was everyone else. I was an A student and everyone knew I would flunk those two test. I'm not stroking my own ego just pointing out that I fell in love and I knew it to be good. The only problem I am currently having with Linux on the laptop is it hates my Dell 1315, I found a market driver for it and it works but I dont want to pay for it so I am going to buy a compatable card. ndiswrapper can't seem to get it going, so for now when I run Linux on it I have to be teathered.
