Complete newbie wanting to get into Linux

Phumfeinz · 04-16-2006, 09:53 PM

Well as the title suggests, I want to start using Linux. I've had enough of Windows' piss poor performance. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what an ideal distro would be? Suse looked pretty nice.

Also, anyone got any good useful links with tutorials/FAQs etc?

Thanks in advance.
