want to use linux, do not know where too start. plz help.
You should go to www.distrowatch.com, and look for a distro to download.
Read some of the comments that are on distrowatch about the distros.
I recommend you go with suse or Fedora if you have a dvd burner.
f no dvd burner, go with Mepis, Knoppix, Mandriva or PcLinuxOS.
Then go to http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ins...nstall-cd.html find out how to do an md5sum(for making sure that the iso is good) and how to burn the iso.
On top of budman7's suggestions above, I recommend you take a look through our Tutorials section:
