Your statement is PERFECT.
A few years back, when I tried on Linux, after booting, it gave me a command line asking for a password. What password? I even had not done anything.
Now it's a nice GUI, almost on par with Windows. I see Ubuntu as my alternative OS which is free and maintained by
Ubuntu Foundation.
I replaced Ubuntu 9.04 with Ubuntu 9.10, and got a nicer log-in interface. Other areas need to explore and see how much better.
My latest finding on the issue of reading files from USB thumb drive is posted on another thread
here.
