Break your Ubuntu Addiction: Three Strong Distros
,----[ Quote ]
| I consider Simply Mepis to be among the
| first distro to get it "right" for people
| looking for a no-hassle, stable experience
| with a generally consistent environment from
| release to release.
|
| At its core, Simply Mepis is created to make
| things easy to use right out of the box for
| any Linux skill level. Despite being a KDE-
| only distro based on Debian, Mepis allows
| the end user to setup their network, video
| configuration and other settings from the
| Simple Mepis "assistants."
|
| This is handy when you want to switch from
| the NVIDIA NV driver to a proprietary driver
| instead, yet wish to do so safely from a GUI
| environment.

The Reg guide to Linux, part 2: Preparing to dual-boot
,----[ Quote ]
| On Monday, we suggested Ubuntu as a good
| starting point for experimenting with
| desktop Linux. If you have the option,
| dedicate a machine to it â by 2010
| standards, even a modest-spec PC will run it
| fine. You'll be very pleasantly surprised by
| the transformation from a lumbering old XP
| box burdened with years of cruft to one with
| a fresh install of an OS that doesn't need
| multiple layers of security software.
