It helps when a lot of the basic concepts of Bash are the same as with DOS, and that I'm gay for DOS.

SuSE's gotten a pretty cartoonish appearance, and some hacks of KDE, wouldn't you agree? I tend to like the more brutal, robust versions as well.

KDE > Gnome IMO. I don't use SuSE anyhow. Gentoo and Slackware for me.

when i install linux, and i let it install all the GUI it has to offer, which one does it use as default?

Wow, I'm laughing so hard I can't use acronyms to say it...

It depends on the distro. Some have KDE, some Gnome, some both.

Red Hat 9, for example, has both.

... which one is default? random?

Depends on distro. Red hat lets you choose, I don't know which is set as the default though.

Ya know, I can remember when I first saw windows 95 after working on 3.11 and Dos 8.1+add on's. My eyes lit up and my mouth hung open. It looked like the greatest thing in the world.

I remember the same thing after going from 3.1 to 95 on my 386 when I was like, 8.

No, Xerox had a demo, but Apple stole it and furthered development for their own good.

then Microsoft stole it from Apple right? (Xerox made an OS/GUI??)

Bill gates quite IBM and then produced windows under his name. If he would have stayed with IBM then Windows would be owned by IBM. I was about 25 when I saw windows 95 for the first time.
