Oh, I didn't know about the open source thing. After searching a few sights, it seems Ubuntu is a little more user friendly. It also seems to have a better forum community and support.
I'm thinking I'll lean towards Ubuntu but I'm not quite sure how to install it. When I downloaded it onto my laptop, I clicked on the Live CD (I think that's what it was) and it said boot to CD to try Ubuntu without changing system settings.
So I tried to burn a cd but it didn't work. I'm not sure if that's how it's done. So I'm currently downloading it on the Computer that can burn cd's really fast.
So I'm wondering, it comes downloaded in a zip file. Do I unzip that? Then after unzipping just burn all of the files onto a CD? Then just stick it in the drive and it'll boot? Or is there a special way it has to be done. I'm just using a 700 mb CDR. I figure I burn the files into no subfolders on the CD.
I've never done anything like this before.. so any guides or tips on installing would be great. (Well before I install I want to preview it so I can tell if it will support my drivers etc)
