I love it when someone that doesnt have a clue about linux speaks about it.:-)
Linux has came a long way cince 1991 when you last used it. Anyone can install it now, Gnome is preconfigured to work great, and the joke of "you cant even use the floppy without obscure commands" is even vaporous. Put a floppy in click on the desktop floppy icon and Voila you're in the floppy looking around. and anyone that has ever used a real PC (including macs) that deals with filesystems correctly will already know that you unmount it before removing it (eject does the unmount, why do you think macs dont have a floppy eject button? I wish that drive was standard on the PC's too.)
Please use linux before you bad mouth it. I use Windows products every day and have to administer them, I have the right and knowlege to bad mouth them.
