HI Bipin, I would go ahead and install the windows XP home, your linux distribution will re-size and re-partition your hard drive. I am not sure about Ubuntu but the latest version of openSuSE has some great wireless networking stuff. Connecting to a wireless network on SuSE is now point and click, a lot easier than it used to be. The Ubuntu however is making massive inroads into the desktop market, and their server is is that shabby either. It has a better package management system as well (IMHO), this is due to its Debian roots. daN -- _____________________________________________________________ " They that can give up liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
