There are several of us on the list who have found Gentoo to our liking. I have no idea as to your general knowledge about computers, but if you have a reasonable understanding of the lore, you might find Gentoo appealing. ( It might be a bit of a baptism of file / jumping in at the deep end :-) If so have a look at:- http://www.gentoo.org in particular:- http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/index.xml You will need a fairly grunty machine. 600 ~ 700 MHz is a realistic minimum. Under 400MHz is totally unworkable. I can offer CDs for this Distribution. Like all Linux distros, there are a ( very ) few points of failure, but in my experience fewer than most of the others. They have completely fixed the RPM hell & upgrade nonsense. -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell NB. This PC runs Linux. If you find a virus apparently from me, it has forged the e-mail headers on someone else's machine. Please do not notify me when this occurs. Thanks.
