Converting the Wife to Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| So as it stands right now, she's got a fairly standard
| version of Ubuntu installed on her laptop, with a few
| extra goodies and the ability to do pretty much
| everything she did on Windows. The major exception is
| that I haven't taken the time to get Bejewled and
| Trillian set up under Wine yet, so she can't play her
| favorite game, but that shouldn't be a big difficulty.
| She's able to visit all her websites, watch internet
| videos, listen to songs streamed across our network
| with Rhythmbox, and use Gaim to talk with her friends
| until I can get Trillian working. My next thing to try
| is to set up KDE / Kubuntu and let her switch back and
| forth, see which window manager she likes the best.
