I'd just like to interject for moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

>>
>>690648617
i knew that. but many perhaps didn't, so it is good that you made that clear. though the normal user doesn't care about/understand that usually.

Ubuntu would be a good kick start for someone who's just starting with linux. however i do dislike Ubuntu, but my likings may differ from yours.
>>
>>690649504
i would recommend mint or debian for starters now.
>>
>>690649906
that too but Ubuntu is somewhat like a copy of Windows. so it would be an easier transition for a former Windows user.
>>
Should I buy a chromebook?
>>
>>690650614
if you want to lack 95% of the functionality of a normal PC, I'd say go for it
>>
>>690650211
>like a copy of Windows
wut? if you want to run exe programs natively, install ReactOS once it is finished. It is still in alpha stage, so there are at least 4 years to go, if not more till it is usable. still buggy as fuck.

one thing is also important: don't fully transition if you are a pc gamer today. if that's the case, dualboot linux and windows.

I don't think it matters so much how similar it is to windows as long as it has some sort of graphical file explorer and run dialog, maybe icons too if the user is especially slow. Anything that has an easy installer, and some "normal" DE, like KDE, gnome, XFCE, cinnamon, or lxde would be good for a windows user. Lxde is the closest, having tried them all, and kde comes with a lot of built in software that windows users who don't install much would appreciate.
