Same thing she used Win98 for (which crashed every couple days) -
web surfing, e-mail, yahoo games, and kid games.

Nothing like me - Playing mp3's, burning CD's at 8x, downloading mp3's, 
writing presentations in StarOffice, running vmware and surfing the net 
simultaneously.  I've yet to see Windows whatever do that.  The Windows
weenies at work can't even match that.  I can't get Win98 to burn a CD 
at 4x on the same hardware (a Duron 600 mhz w/ 320MB RAM), yet I was 
doing all of the above under Linux.  Windows was only burning the CD at 
4x and just barely.
