    Fedora is great.

    I use Mandrake whenever I need a Linux fix.

    Make sure your Windows doesn't find out you're playing around with linux or she'll take you to the cleaners.

    I recently tried Ubuntu linux, and I'm liking it so far...

    Here's a post I just did in Hot Hot Deals where you can get free CDs sent to you...

    start with knoppix to get a feel for things, knoppix runs from a cd so no install.

    Then id run Lycoris, Fedora like above, or suse linux.

    If you want to then dive in more id try slackware or gentoo

    to download isos heres a nice place to get them
