I have dealt with Ubuntu for almost 2 years now, 14 months using it as 
my default computer.
I never heard of Vinux.

What I need is a good Speech to text for some Linux OS since the lady 
that need it cannot afford to buy a faster used computer and buy a 
Windows OS that is newer than the Win2000 she has on her PIII computer.  
I spent my money on the fastest Quad desktop I could afford and did not 
spend a penny on Windows.
