I think a large part of it is the population you have that goes to BUY a computer at Wal-Mart. No offense.... but even some of the most computer illiterate people I know would not go to Wal-Mart for a computer. The only person I think I know who has bought one there did so only because in that part of Michigan..... they're lucky to even have a Wal-Mart.

Sounds like a plan to me. I'm actually getting ready to build a new PC and I am more than willing to pick upa second hard drive and give Linux a real try. I want to learn more about PC's anyways and greatly expand my knowledge and experience.... so to me.... it's a small price for knowledge. Wal-Mart may have turned its back on Linux.... but I'm opening the door to it.

I can run Linux on my PC if I partition the hard drive and run it from that partition, right? Or what if I have it on a secondary drive? I should be able to boot from that hard drive too, right? I'm willing to give Linux a shot. Have heard a lot of good things about it. I'll admittedly not want to use it solely.

Shame that Wal-Mart dropped it. At least they are carrying the PC's with it on their website. Of course.... how do you get to the website if you don't have a computer?..... Pic of the crying penguin just sad.
