RE: i'm a newbie

Definately Mandrake 7.2 - Redhat has gone too commercial and they are losing
their head as it comes to what they wanted to acheive when they started out.
Mandrake is definately the goer :)

Some would disagree, although i have my opinion and mandrake is it :) You'll
probably find if you try both, you'll like mandrake better, as its designed
to be "easy", its packed with GUI config tools, making your life easier if
your just starting out.

Good luck with it!

Btw  - dont put "i'm a newbie" in ur subject again, some nasty people might
pick on you :P I can already see DL thinking " shit, not ANOTHER newbie" :)
