Hi everyone,

I'm new to Linux, and want to try it, since it does appear to have alot going for it, and fun factor built in with the open source bit as well.

I know this is a big question, but which version do you recommend?

With some assistance from books, and I'm sure, yourselves, I could try one of the freebee ones, but maybe it would be better to buy a package.  Any ideas?

I do need to have Internet access, and know that I can obtain drivers for  the PCI fitted Diamond Supra modem, which has a Connexant HCF chipset, as a "Linmodem".

I also have a Sapphire (ATI clone) Radeon 9500 Graphics card, which I also believe does now have drivers available.

So really at this stage, any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance

Nick Paton
