Paraphrases that capture gists, not necessarily from AOL accounts:

"I have down loaded Linux 6.0 it will not run Photoshop you must help me
  because I need to use Photoshop, my cousin gave me a copy of his and I
can only run it on Linux not Windows because Linux is free and Windows
isn't, how do I open Photoshop wiht Linux?"

"I see that Linux is free. Could you please send one of your engineers
to my house to install it and teach me how to use it? Thank you..."

"My modem won't work in Linux, I downloaded it off the Internet this is
bad you guys suck you will never take over from Windows."

"I put Linux on my computer now I can't get it off and windows wont boot
if you dont fix this i will call the better business breau i got linux i
downloaded it free i am going to sue if you dont make it work right."

And the beat goes on...
