A sr, Narea, which suggestion ?
gracias, Allen (in Mexico, where MS dominates)

My suggestions: Allow as many people as possible to use your Linux system
                         Load Ubuntu / Linux on systems belonging to your
friends
                         On systems previosly ruined by"bugs and bots"
refuse to re-load any flavor of MS Windows,
                         Refuse to repair any system with more than 4
problems caused by "Windows, IE Explorer and MS mail clients.
