I was reading this article on debiantutorials.org (http://www.debiantutorials.org/content/view/224/1/) and I thought it was pretty interesting.

He makes some good points (and some silly ones :]) on how to rescue her from the evils of Micro$oft. The real secret is to make it simple and functional. He used a Debian box, replaced some of her Windows programs with web applications, and what he could not replace, he just distracted her with some silly games! :)

My only question is: “How do you make you grandmother switch to Linux?” Can you do it yourself or does your mom have to do it?

More power to open source software,
