If any distro is likely to 'scare' a newbie, I'd wager it's Slackware or

Now you've done it!!!!
You just touched my first (linux) love; Slackware. I'll beat the daylights out
of you given half the chance;)
Hahh, I've even still got the huge Walnut Creek "Linux The Advanced Reference"
book (or is it bible?) right up front in my bookcase. All the Howto's in dead
tree format...just love the feel of it:)
Slack was my first encounter witj linux that actually stuck (Mdk and Suse
certainly NOT, at the time)......Check out slack-live or slax: live distro's
that'll run on anything 386_up. If knoppix or whatever won't run on it, slack
or slax will! OpenOffice included at all;)
I guess I'll have to take another look at Slack. It too was my first
Linux distribution. Installed on my trusty 386 from a stack of
floppies. (386-DX25 with a waping 8MB of RAM!)
