ha ha ha...not really....give xandros to noobs and ask them to try it out...they will *for sure* be happy about linux....xandros as a desktop for noobs is 1000 times far better than any other distros....and /me as implemented xandros across various desktops in schools and coleges and found it to be the only linux distro which has drivers for all priners and modems and infact detects them perfectly...and thats why i recommend xandros for noobs...
