Open Source Chicken and Egg

,----[ Quote ]
| My wife’s aunt’s computer was always getting full of viruses.  I’d spend a 
| few hours every time I came to visit removing the viruses and get the 
| computer   
| back to a working state.  Sounds like the perfect job for….. Linux!  All she 
| does on her computer is email and watch videos - that’s it.  Plus, I can set 
| everything to Vietnamese for her thanks to Linux’s great internationalization 
| efforts.  Since I wanted a nice, worry-free desktop for her, I installed 
| Ubuntu 8.04.     
| 
| [...]
| 
| So now, another happy Linux customer.  I think she’ll enjoy it and won’t even 
| realize it’s not Windows she’s really using.
