Not bad. Yesterday I gathered some old parts and 2 15 year old boys and had them build a computer. They got it built and trouble shot it in a few hours (had a collection of old boards, some of which were good. It taught them alot). This was their first time building one. Then they proceeded to install Fedora 2.
I had installed fedora as a dual boot on a second hard drive in the one boy's family computer a couple of weeks before, so they both had played with it some. After installing and configuring the OS, they learned to download and install packages. They were very impresed by how easy it was to install as opposed to windows. I loaned them a couple of books and they got busy finding what fedora will do. The one wants to remove the windows partition now. The other took the built machine home, as he had managed to get something in the bios we can't get rid of. It hangs up during boot even with the hard drives disconnected and booting from a floppy.
Neither understands what all the hype about the difficulty of linux is all about, as both have seen all the usual windows problems. Nyah levi
