Need help picking a distro
Hey everyone. I'm having trouble picking a Linux distribution to best meet my needs and I thought I would ask the community for help. Here is what I need.
- I need my wireless to work (Broadcom card FYI)
- I need iPod/iTunes support
- I need something to run Windows applications (namely WoW, possibly others)
- I'll need my sound to work
I will be installing Linux on my laptop which is a Compaq Presario V2424NR. If anyone needs the specs on my laptop let me know. Thanks everyone!

welcome to the forums, snoguy986
take a few minutes to read through the links in my signature, pick your distro, then start a new thread if you should run into any problems with it.
have fun with linux!

Welcome aboard!
Definetly take a look at the distro link in my sig. Just note though that if one distro can do it, it is 99% likely that you can do it in another.Looking for a distro? Look here.
