www.distrowatch.com This is a recurring question. Hopefully some kind soul will give you the standard party line. I'm tired of doing it, so I'll limit myself to my personal opinions. If no one replies, check the uug-list archives. The best distro to use while you're starting is what ever your friend is using. The major ones here are Redhat, Gentoo, Debian, and *BSD. (Did I leave anybody out?) Once you feel comfortable with Linux, the best thing to do is read a little bit about the distro on the site itself, install it, kick the tires, move on if you don't like it. Discover for yourself what the differences are and you'll learn more as well as come to appreciate your distro of choice (whatever it be) more than if you just take my word for it. -- Stuart Jansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> #define FALSE 0 /* This is the naked Truth */ #define TRUE 1 /* and this is the Light */ -- mailto.c
