Hi Tim,

Welcome to the LUG! Firstly, apologies but I don't seem to be able to
reply to this mail in-line. So, I'll just quickly note that, on Aq's
advice, I installed Debian using Morphix. It worked very well. I've also
had a quick look at Mepis, which is another Debian based live CD, which
has some slightly more user friendly config tools.

I'm still looking, tho', for the distro that is perfect for me.

Matthew.
