Very Computer

hiya folks. I am a complete newbie to linux. I want to learn it, and
learn how it works. I have a Cyrix based PC <6x86>, and was wondering
what is the best version for me to start with, and where to get it.
Thanks for your time!!

  I would suggest that you start at a bookstore, and look for one
of the Linux Unleashed books.  I happened to choose the RedHad
(mostly becasue of the number of positive comments associated
with its installation).
Good Luck

Dave -

   Personally I use and like Slackware 3.0. I got my copy from Info Magic as
a 5 disk set. Computer shows have lots of copies relativly cheap (about $15).
You can also access Info Magics web site at www.infomagic.com for more info.
I have heard that the versions of Slackware after 3.0 are messed up. My
version has 1.2.13 kernal, it's setup for ELF and is stable and works well
for me.
