Hi! all, This topic has been probably discussed before. I have a personal laptop with Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit running great with all the softwares I need. I have a office computer (pentium 4 ) with windows and full of viruses requiring repeated formatting to keep it going. needless to say it does not have a net connection. Now I am ready to go ahead and install Ubuntu or any other distro with the following aims: 1. Stable and crash free 2. user friendly to those used to 'wincedows' 3. Attract more users to ubuntu/linux. 4. We have lot of old printers without drivers which I believe would run well with Ubuntu/Linux.
The main problem with Ubuntu I envisage would be adding and updating software without a net connection. I don't know if it is possible to run the computer with a live USB stick which can be updated on another computer. Advice is solicited for a distro which would run out of the box, easy to upgrade and is user friendly for 'wincedows' people. regards Kartik
