I would suggest that you get one of the sets that have multiple versions of linux on it (Like the Infomagick 6 CD set ). Try installing one version if it works for you then you stick with that version. If you have not alot of unix experience I would suggest you try RedHat or Caldera. Because they have a tech support department available and are more or less targetting the New user. Michael. -- Michael C. Vergallen A.k.A.
