I installed Linux Mandrake 8.1 which I got at Borders. It detected my printer, Apollo 2250 fine although I haven't checked the cd burner or the internet connection. Konquerer works well with pdf files - it lauches xpdf fine. When I get ink, I can test the printer better.
Kword doesn't do frames the same as Corel Draw - you can't connect frames together - it just overflows to another page. I really like Abi Word though and I have it on windows too. It actually makes individual line breaks, so my poetry comes out single space. No more coding html by hand. I can also make documents for my Palm. And I don't have to use Lotus WordPro anymore for on the fly spell check - that is included too. Mandrake graphical install goes slow though on a Pentium 200 with 48mb RAM. I tried choosing the packages individually, but the CUPS server gave problems, so I just went back to the default packages. Ben [EMAIL PROTECTED]
