Plus it is running on a laptop, which is probably the most obnoxious thing to
install Linux on in the first place. I personally think Debian is the easiest to
install... the best part is during the install, you can either select previous,
next, alt1 or alt2 (incase you need to do other stuff first, or you already have
stuff configured, I know I run mke2fs myself before installing, so its nice that
it lets you use an already formatted partition).  Just thought I would share my
ramblings...  ;)
