Mandrake 8.1 is easy to install, and I'm sure the newest version of redhat is also simple to get going. Both are free.

If you have a cd burner use the ISO Section, if you have no cd burner use the section above it. You will need three iso's for the iso download, not recommended to get if you have anything less than broadband as the files are 600+ megs in size apiece.

P.S. Moved post to Alt OS' where it goes.

You don't really need the 3 cds. 1 is the main OS, plus extra programs. Another is extra shovelware, and the last is the source for it all.
