Sorry to hear your story. But things are not always the easy way. So take it in a stride. For an easy pick, try out KNOPPIX that LFY guys gave out in their Feb issue. You'll love it. I even ran my WinAmp3 (Windows version) using Wine (bundled along with KNOPPIX) and it runs just sooooper!! Contact someone who has the CDs and give it a try again.
I have tried out RedHat and RCQ 8.0 both but I prefer PCQ 7.1 which was out more than a year ago.
