194962 2003-11-30 12:43:00 I have done several Linux installs and have found them easier than any Windows installs. You don't have to do about twenty reboots to get it running just one. mikebartnz (21)

Which Distro? Ive found Fedora and Lycoris' Desktop/LX (Playing solitare while installing is real cool) to be best!

194964 2003-12-01 08:44:00 Several RH and one Indian one I downloaded on dialup. Without digging through all the CD's I have can't remember what it was called but it looked like it had good potential. Would have tried another but having downloaded about a gig of 1.2 the last night I went to continue the download discovered they had moved site so lost it. If I had adsl I would have looked at a few others.
Have yet to get Fedora.
