adriantc 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2005 I'd recommand you MandrakeLinux 10. I have it installed on my system and it works great. It also has some interesting stuff for a beginner like you. For example it a program that help you eject the cd-rom from the drive without unmounting it. Of course this is a small thing but the diferences between linux distributions is made by stuff like this.Oh...if you only want to see how linux works you could trie a live cd distribution. This is basicly a linux distribution that you don't have to install since you run it from cd. If you are interested search for Knoppix. You know there is a version of linux that run from a floppy disk. If you really want a small linux distribution you could tried Damn Small Linux.Anyway Linux is much better then Windows, but it's only problem is the user-friendly stuff like the installation wizards (almoust non-existant in linux).
