I personally would recommend Puppy Linux (presently version 2.02) to newbies, since it boots from a DVD, reads from it, and writes to the same DVD, which at the next boot-up becomes "multisessional". The iso file is only around 70-72 MB. Puppy does not need a hard drive, and does not interfere with any previous partition. Cheers Eric Eric Pihl
