Eric,

I use RH, but for newbie distribution I think that Knoppix is the way to go.

It can be installed on any computer without anxiety.  Assuming that it is 
not compatible - video or sound problems for example, it can be uninstalled 
without trace.

Although I have not tried it, I understand a permanent installation can be 
done from the Knoppix disk.
