Thanks for all the advice! There's quite a few Linux distribution packages available and they all look good, and it seems they are all good, otherwise there would be a definite opinion towards one or the other. I figure I'll take some time to find out which version suits me best. It's probably a good idea to start with the simplest, like Knoppix, just to get my head wrapped around LInux quickly, then try out a few of the others that were mentioned.

Instead of downloading all 7 CD's (as I did), there's supposed to be a method to install from an internet connection. When I get to it I'll be trying that out instead of messing around with my CD burner all day.
