    This is not a good choice for a new user. Fedora Core 6 is horribly out of date. The latest version is Fedora 10 (they dropped the "Core" name several releases back). You will have a hard time updating it, as it is no longer officially supported.

    If your PC is newer than the release of Fedora Core 6, then there may be problems with some hardware support. You see, it can't have drivers for hardware that didn't even exist yet.

    Go ahead and try it, just keep in mind that there could be problems, I would look at obtaining a more recent version of Linux, though

    Good Luck!

    K/Ubuntu is a pretty good place to start. SuSE is also very user friendly. I only have limited experiences with Fedora but on the whole it seemed like a good starting point too.

    I'm not sure if it still does but you used to be able to buy a box set of SuSE which came with two fairly handy manuals and three months support. it was something like $45 I think though.

    Even the majority of some of the more complicated distros now have very intuitive installers. Once installed, as long as you have a working internet connection. You have access to one of the biggest librarys of support documentation going (a la google).

    Good luck with whatever you try.

    Having read it just recently, I'll add The Revised Slackware Book Project to the mix in case it hasn't already been. Yes it is for Slackware but a lot of the information in it is usuable else where.
    I need a new signature. This one is boring!

    My blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.
