[dba-Tech] Just loaded Linux for the first time

Hello Gustav,

I am currently downloaded Knoppix as I type, 

I did visit the Xandros website but it appeared that the only way to
download for free was to use some software named bitware.  This sounds
like a kind of Peer to Peer system, which I am reluctant to install
for obvious reasons.

I did not look into purchasing the CD from Xandros, as I presume that
I can or will find a site that I can download a harddisk installable
version.

Do you think that Xandros is worth ordering and paying for or will I
keep looking for a easily aquireable version?

Thanks

Mark
