It's as easy as that. Try Linux Ubuntu as an operating system, it is free (as in beer and as in freedom). You will find preinstalled within the install of the system OpenOffice.org (an office suite), Firefox (browser), and all the rest you need. Really. Just download the file and burn a CD. You can even install the operating system from windows if that makes you feel more confident (thourhg Wubi). I use another flavour of Linux, but Ubuntu is the most popular and one of the easiest to get to grips with. This is a viable alternative, check http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Linux-and-Open-Source/Ubuntu-804-Is-Ready-to-Take-On-Windows/ and http://www.ubuntu.com/ Richard
