My 14 year old sister prefers it to windows xp. Why she saw that it is stable, faster, and has all kinds of cool games to play. She surfs the web and IMs most of the time she loves it. Plus she loves all the cool wallpapers with cute penguins on them she found. She uses Xandros but wants to switch to Debian Sarge after seeing my laptop install of it. Which is probably a good idea because even though she can install from the debian repositories she has to be carefull because it is easy to goof Xandros's kde install. Oh, and she has root of her own box knows how to install software that she wants(mostly games go figure) and even switch the network routing to use a dialup connection when the high speed is down(Damn wireless high speed)
