Many thanks to all who responded to the above topic.
I'm now more confused than ever, but I've written down (how quaint! <g>)
everyone's opinions, and I'm researching the distributions you all
mentioned.
I think I should be done by the end of the year, LOL.
Still, I'm finding it very refreshing to be offered "choices" with Linux
rather than
the "Here. This is what it is, what you used to have doesn't work any
more. Now pay us."
that I've gotten for years with MS Windows
Again, thanks to all. We're REALLY enjoying OOo.
Best,

I have not yet read all this thread, but have the gist of it.

I have tested Knoppix, Mandrake/Mandriva, Fedora Core versions 2-6, and
OpenSuse 10.1, and find that, of these, one feature pops out as best in
OpenSuse: the support for NTFS. This is vital for people migrating from
WinXP, if you want to copy files from your Windows partition to a Linux
partition.
I found it difficult in OpenSuse to get updates to OOo, though. Fedora
was much easier, in which I just uninstalled the Fedora version and
installed the official OOo version.
Just my $.02,
Matt
