I'm a terminal-phobe, or whatever you'd call it. Allright, I did separately install a calculator program but it was much easier than it was to install something on Windows. Plus, Xubuntu is much more stable and looks better IMHO.

<div>I am new to the group, and I apologize in advance for my lack of xubuntu understanding. I installed the newest version on a Toshiba Satellite Pro laptop 440CDX. There is very little there to see! My basic question is this:
</div>
<div>Is Xubuntu used mostly by experienced users that are willing to wonder how to run a browser from the command line?! and the need to install a separate calculator program?! (Absolutely no offense to either of those individuals). I mean, I was looking for a full function OS such as Linux, however one that would run well on a lower-end machine such as my old laptop (Win98 previously). While I certainly enjoy the challenge of 'making everythink work' that was not what I was looking for in this OS. Again, no offense to anyone, but trying to figure things out. Alrightl, all, educate me!
