Q. operating systems such as google chrome or linux rather than windows?
A. Windows = lots of easy to install software, not very reliable(frequent crashes/freezes), is slow, tracks everything you do and sends it to microsoft(really!)
Linux = Fast, very stable(almost no crashes/bsod's), the new "package-installers" make installing software easier than it used to be, no help(use well maintained forums to get help), no behind the scenes data collection, stick to the popular versions(called "distros")
Chrome = coming out soon, Google's OS. Since it is google it is all spyware. Supposed to be fast, designed more for netbooks and using "cloud storage" to give you unlimited storage space on google servers for free(until you are hooked, then they will begin charging you to access your own data). All of the data you store will be scanned for unlicensed songs, films, kiddie porn, etc. If they find any expect a visit from the Man and a lawsuit from Sony Music.
Best sloution: dual boot Win XP sp3 and Ubuntu Linux, then you can have both while you learn more about linux, slowly phase out windows use. With the new Ubuntu you can access your WIN files! See youtube vids for dual boot tutorials

I use a wireless hotspot for internet. How do I get Linux to connect to this hotspot?
Q. My ISP supports Windows, and the Mac OS, but not Linux.
I know that Chrome book's are Linux basically, but the machine is supported. I want to simply install Linux on a machine I already own, and connect to my hotspot.

A. Hi
Trustthebear69
He is asking about linux.
"Many ISP wireless will not give this information out to people."
To find your wireless key if not on the router just google "web interface for your router make" ie web interface netgear router
Log on to your router using the default user and password and you will find the information.
"My ISP supports Windows, and the Mac OS, but not Linux."
This means that the ISP will not offer advise on Linux.
As long as linux distro detects your wireless chip in your pc then it will connect when you select the name of your router and supply the security wireless key.
Google for the forum of your Linux Distro for instructions.

What do you download from the chrome store to be able to get java?
Q. I have an Acer Chromebook and i want java for like oovoo and some other apps. I understand you download the Linux java download. But when i download that it says i have to download an app that can open java. What is that app called?
A. Chrome devices have Flash support built-in, but they do not support Java or Silverlight. If you need Java, Silverlight, or other plug-in support, there are virtualization and remoting options you can use for Chrome devices. See the chapter on Remote Access and Virtualization in the Chrome Devices for Education Technical Planning Guide: http://www.google.com/support/enterprise/static/chromeos/docs/admin/en/chrome_devices_for_edu.pdf
