This is how mine rolls (Attached).

My buddy Vargas always manages to jack up windows, and i always have to fix it.

We will be geographically parting ways soon, and there are currently no other English speaking computer nerds in this nation that we are aware of.

he uses skype, and emails people back and forth... that is how he stays in touch with the family, and that is kind of important. and he listens to music.

the odds of him getting in touch with a linux-savvy person here are far far lower than the odds of him getting in touch with a windows-savvy person.... so no one will be around to help when he inevitably breaks his linux install. no point in installing it.

the solution needs to be fire-and-forget.

something i can do once that will work for the longest period possible. something that he can not break.

hence, attached :)

(my intent was to make a really quick post and attach the pic...all well.)

Did you make a Live CD with everything he needs in it?

Very nice idea and very good of you.

no, i found a distro where someone had already done it :)

gOS, in this case, was the right tool for the job.... mostly cuz it came with skype.
