I have installed freebsd server in a small company that has approx 30

a large part of the problems that they had before the firewall was
caused by the 30 windows pc's that were connected directly to the
ISP's wireless router. They would like to change the PC's to unix
desktops.
I would like to install FreeBSD or any other bsd but don't feel that
we have the drivers available to substitute such a wide variety of
hardware. I would love to be proven wrong. Therefore I am
considering a linux version with a graphic installer that will make it
easier to train someone to install on any new machines that they add
later. My problem is that I haven't done a linux install since before
FreeBSD 2.2 IIRC and have no idea which version would be the most
versatile and has an installer that is basically brain dead simple
with most all drivers. I suspect that I am asking the impossible but
you never know.
I'm sure that I'm not the only person to run into this situation and I
would sure appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,

Ubuntu Linux. It's very windows-users friendly, and has a graphical
installer. It's based on Debian Linux. It also is a LiveCD, so you
can test hardware before actually installing it to the HDD.
Thanks, I'm going to give it another try after SUSE.
