I had great experiences with both Red Hat and Debian. Both installed quite easily. The only "extra" config I "had" to do was to track down and install the right modem drivers (Lucent winmodem), but that can hardly be blamed on the individual Linux distros, as it includes proprietary binary-olnly code. The only other problem I had was getting the printer working in Debian (over the network). Other than that, everything worked well. -Roberto ___________________________________________________ Yahoo!
