Bubye Windows.....
As my primary OS.....
I posted a thread a while ago about wanting to move to Linux asking folks what version they use. I started playing with a few Live CDs to find what I wanted. I've finally decided to settle on PCLinuxOS 2007. It'* a variant of Mandrake or Mandriva as it'* now known. It'* the first distro I've loaded where 99% of my hardware worked like a charm. I'm going to have to keep XP Pro on the drive for work stuff but I'll dual boot. The thought of going with Vista wasn't appealing to me although I'll have to learn it sooner or later. The wife is looking for a new laptop and the one that we spec'd come with Vista Business so I'll have some exposure there.
If anyone is interested check out www.pclinuxos.com
The live CD is also the installer.
