Oh man, "Does it have network cap ?" 
Linux was built ON the net FOR the net BY the net (tm)

You can download linux from most sunsites, look for a local mirror, or
sunsite.unc.edu. The downloads are pretty lengthy even with a fast link
so you're probably better off getting a good CD distribution

I'd recommend 
- Redhat for newbies (installs a breeze), 
- Debian for hackers

Cheers
