OK Guys...As promised...Here we go...Ready to seriously take the dive.
I have read some of the stickies...and I am really impressed with the amount of work...that some of you have put into providing the information necessary for one to...hopefully have a successful journey into the land of Linux.
After reading the Thread...Which Version Of Linux Is Best For A Newbie? I am leaning towards the Mandriva Distro.
With that thread being 2 or 3 years old...I am wondering if that still applies today? If it is could someone please provide a link to the latest Distro?
Also the computer that i want to install it on is an Acer x86 with an Intel 352 Celeron D processor...at 3.20 GHZ...with 1 GB DDR RAM. The computer is not more than two years old.
I currently have an older version of Ubuntu dual booting with XP...I would like to remove Ubuntu and keep XP...I still want to Dual boot...Can someone Please tell me how to do that?
I intend to use that computer to experiment with programs that work with XP. as well as to learn about Linux.
