I've used unix and a little linux at uni, so not totally new to it.
I chose mandrake / suse because I've been led to beleive that linux and laptops (especially with touchpads, dvd burners and wifi) don't go together very well, and I figured one of the 'bigger' distros would be an easier install.

Really new to Linux? Try looking at Xandros Open distribution. http://www.xandros.com/
Very easy to use and install.
I believe it's based on Debian so once you got comfortable you could move to the full version of Debian
(which apparently is the One True Operating System) :-)

Hello
I'm new to linux and I'm looking for a copy of either mandrake 10 or suse 9 to install on a toshiba m30 laptop.
Is there anyone who would be able to burn me a copy of either of these? Or suggest a better distro?
Thanks
