You will find that after Windows there will be a big culture shock with any Linux. 9.0 is a good distro and you will learn lots.
Its just that if you were going to spend hours downloading a distro I thought you might like to know the new release is imminent. Upgrading is not too difficult. It is easier if you keep your personal files (your /home directory) on a separate partition. That way you can upgrade by just wiping the old release and install the new one over the top without losing your personal data. derek On Monday 17 Mar 2003 4:53 pm, m wrote: > Derek, > would it be too much of a difference comparing with 9.1 Beta?
