Linux conversions?

Linux conversions?

[Jes and guide dog Harley]

Hi all,
How successful have any of you been, in any situation, to convert an individual avid windows user to Linux? Was there conversion
based on the fact that they fcouldn't use a certain software package under Windows? Did it take some convincing? Did you have to
prove any points or have a debate? I would like any of you who has a testimony, if any, to share your experience of converting
someone to Linux. Please email me privately at:
jesman598@triad.rr.com
Thanks, and don't worry, I'm just asking cause I'm curious!
Jes, we all know that Microsoft loves text interfaces.

Sheesh, does a sprinkling on the head count? Or, do they have to go
under backwards, completely?

I'm not sure what you meant by that post, but either or would do.
