You can run Windows exe files on Linux with a emulation programs. Firefox is also compatable with Linux. As far as Microsoft Office files you can get a Freeware program called Open Office from openoffice.org . This can open any Microsoft Office application such as Powerpoint excel word and so on.

Its a good ideal for your 2 brothers to learn linux early in life. for the fact they will learn to work around the all so horrable world of Microsoft. If they wont to excel in life within the Tech world this will help them in the long run.

First things in memory are never forgotten, we have to wright down everything after that Wink
