I am getting a tablet PC in about 2 months. Does anyone know which distro of
Linux I should use? I think the only thing so far that the distro need is
the writing tablet function. I am planning on putting the distro on my
laptop to get used to using it before I get my tablet PC. Thanks in advance.

Choppy is correct, I was not. That's what I get for
effusing before morning coffee.

I didn't mean to imply that Chomsky pioneered
propaganda analysis. I do think that Chomsky has made
the biggest contribution in modern times in the
critical analysis of media.

Here's a better introduction to Noam Chomsky and his
work:
