Go to www.distrowatch.com and pick out a distribution flavor to try, download it, burn it to CD and try it out.

Or come to a meeting and ask...I'm sure we'll be able to get you a distro to try.

Re: [wanted]free linix software

If you have a specific Linux distribution in mind (like Ubuntu, Suse, or Mandriva), I would be happy to burn you a disk and bring it to a meeting, or have it on hand for you to pick up.

Linux.org also has a large list of Distributions you can read or learn about. Linux ISO also has direct downloads, but their versions may not be the latest ones.

Like I said I don't know what's good and what's not. If you wouldn't mind could you burn me Ubuntu. My friend said he runs that version.

Sure. I can do it tonight. You're not signed up for our Linux Boot Camp this Saturday are you? If you have $50 and are free the next 2 Saturdays, you'd learn a lot (we're covering Ubuntu).

If not, just let me know how you want to get this disc from me.
