Somehow i just dont see for simple things like Word Processing Linux is difficult to use.
There's always Mandrake... well now Mandriva. But in all honesty, I don't think any Linux distro is there yet for normal desktop use. Maybe if Linux had a five year head start they would be competing with Windows, but not now. I will say this, the difference in east of use with Mandrake 9 and 10 was impressive. 10 is quite a bit better IMO. Hopefully other Distros are progressing just as fast.
