It's always good to see qualified people expanding even further! All of the Mcse's that work with me are stubborn as hell, and wouldn't even look at another OS whether it's linux/Mac/BSD/OS2 or whatever. Good luck with your learning, If you learn as much as I have on thes forums you'll be doing aaaaallllright!

I did the test too... Choose 'intermediate knowledge' (which I have, in my eyes
. And then it comes up witk (K)Ubuntu, Mepis and Mandriva?
I'm running a Slackware-based distro!** Registered Linux User # 393717 and proud of it
** Check out www.zenwalk.org
** Zenwalk 2.8 - Xfce 4.4 beta 2- 2.6.17.6 kernel = Slack on steroids! **

since you (should) have command line experience, i'm sure that linux won't be too intimidating with it's preference of using the terminal for doing things.Here's why Linux is easier than Windows:
Package Managers! Apt-Get and Portage (among others) allow users to install programs MUCH easier than Windows can.
Hardware Drivers. In SuSE, ALL the hardware is detected and installed automatically! How is this harder than Windows' constant disc changing and rebooting?
