You catch on quick dont you ;-)
If I was content with just using the OS, then Ark Linux would be my choice.

I wouldnt recommend Mandrake or Fedora either, not after using Ark.
Personally I wanted something more advanced so I chose Gentoo, but with Ark, Everything (Except Rosegarden and Kaffeine which segfault due to it still being Alpha 10) just works too!
Java etc all work too :-)

Im pretty sure that Drag-and-drop CD Burning is part of KDE-3.2, so that's nothing overly special. Packet writing may be....
Hotplug auto-detects USB Devices and that's included in almost every distro I can think of.

The great thing is support is free, the OS is free... And its a valid windows replacement for the Home User :-)

Im not knocking Xandros in any way. Apparently the Networking support in it is enviable, but Im just mentioning the free'er alternatives :-)

Cheers
