I have heard Linux is great because you don't have "big brother" manipulating your system.....but you need to be pretty computer literate in order to put it together (which I couldn't be if I tried).

How could it be unstable? it's basically Windows XP Pro with a few removed features. Win2k is better though, I never liked that dog thing when I was searching for a file!
