I guess that by "Ultra Userfriendly" the author means to say "Windows-like"?
Many find Ubuntu much more trivial (also GNOME-based).
Still ... the choice is there, for both the Pros and the Paste-eaters.
If someone offered to give me one of those two distro's for free, I'd
probably take Linspire ... simply to get my hands on RestoreIT.
