Hi Tom, as of this point, I don't think I will be trying anything other than Ubuntu; but it has really been a long long time I had tried other OS. When kde changed from kde3 to kde4, it wasn't really ready and I used the alpha versions of kubuntu as the newer kde versions in alpha's were much much better. At that time I also kept my trusty hardy in kde3 and it is only recently that I cleared that. I had used red hat and that's where I usually end up with a blinking cursor or a grub prompt after installation and I had dependency hell. Mandrake was a pleasant surprise, everything works well and it was so easy to install and maintain, and I liked the kde desktop. Suse was another improvement but went downhill when Novell took over. I normally had a spare partition ready for new try-outs but usually the new try outs don't last 2 weeks. When I was traveling a lot, I took along a DSL thumb drive in 64 MB, usb1 and that was fun. Puppy linux somehow don't quite cut it. So, with some historical baggage, I tried Lubuntu in a 2 GB thumb and it was good. That thumb drive is now stuck to my desktop computer even though I have 2 empty hd partitions. So, I am pretty settled but if you have some recommendations, I might be tempted. Good to talk to you.
