+1 for Linux Mint. I would recommend Mint 13 KDE which is LTS (Long time support) release, so is supported for sometime. Regarding your printer - search http://home.windstream.net/joelwest/ here with your printer name and filter results by Ubuntu / Mint if you face any issues in connecting. For handling file shares through GUI install "system-config-samba". http://community.linuxmint.com/software/view/system-config-samba -- Cheers, Anand Radhakrishnan When there is a drive, there is a path.
