> Osnews has a very glowing review of Arch Linux.
Arch Linux was founded by the guy that ran the KDE maintenance for Red Hat.

You may want to install/use Cygwin as well. It provides a nice comfy bash, perl,
ssh, and lots of other unix/linux-like utilities. Without leaving windows.
You'll have to add the -v option on your putty invocation, unless
