dear all, i don't know where to ask so i hope you guy can help me out. we are using windows system without licences. it's illegal, and we don't have money to buy licenses. so my boss ask me to learn linux and migrate our system to linux. i have no idea which linux is good for us? we need file, print server and email and database also. about desktop we just need office. so my question is which linux is free or low price, easy to use. what about services? does it cost a lot of money? or can you give me website for newbie like me? thanks for your help, Tri.
As a desktop, I'd use Ubuntu or LinuxMint: http://www.howtoforge.com/the_perfect_desktop_ubuntu_gutsy_gibbon http://www.howtoforge.com/desktop-installation-guide-linux-mint-4.0-daryna For a file and print server, take a look at this category: http://www.howtoforge.com/howtos/samba
