Ok I barley know how to spell Linux. Let alone understand which version to look into and what to play with. I dont know command line interfaces. So whatever I choose must have a good GUI. I am on broadband so downloading an ISO is not a problem. I was thinking about knoppix on a CD, but seeing as I have a spare HD that I can install it on I would like to go that route.
I breiffly read over some of the threads in this section and saw that some of what I know is totally wrong. I thought that Linux was like saying windows with just diffrent versions, like 95.98 and so on. But it looks like linux is just a base and people have built there own OS onto linux. My current system is a P4 2.4 with 1 gig of ram, GF4 video card. I know there are driver issues but I would like to find the easiest build to get me started with the basics of linux.
Any Help At all will be apprciated.
