Well I wouldn't install Corel Linux for 2 reasons.  1) It wouldn't detech
most of my hardware (mouse, modem and soundcard).  Although that was
version 1.  Version 2 may be different.  2) Corel are getting out of the
distro business I think.

I would go for Mandrake 7.2.  It was recommended by a Linux guru I know as
the better distro for the uninitiated.  By a couple of books as well.  I
have the Linux Unleashed book (mainly because it was only 29.95 AUS as a
sellout).  It has helped me a bit.  Another good book you hear about is
Running Linux 3 edition by O'Reilly.
If anyone wants to recommend some other books I'd be interested.

my very new 2 cents worth...

JED

PS:  If anyone knows where I can buy Soldier of Fortune for Linux in
Melbourne please let me know...
