=====================
You have a number of options as far as purchase goes. I'm still running 7.1 (with
2.2.19 kernel).
For a newbie, there's nothing wrong (perhaps a lot right ;o) ) with running 7.x and
perhaps waiting for 8.1 or 8.2 to "upgrade". OR you could purchase a two disk set
of 8.0 from Cheapbytes for about $4-5 right now and then buy the "official" 8.1
later on from mandrake.
Almost any external serial modem will work. I like USRobotics personally.
HTH,
Mike
