    acquiring a taste

    This might not be the most appropraite place to lodge my question, but as I still consider myself a newbie perhaps it it.

    I am wondering which distros are rolling releases and can be downloaded and installed from the resulting iso?

    thanks for the advice.

    Hello and welcome!

    Arch is one of them, and I've been using it for about 7 or 8 years now because I like it!

    You can pick up some info on others here:

    I've been using PCLINUXOS since June 2010, KDE version, and I like it. The interface is familiar and easy to use.
    Updates come every few days and are easily implemented thru Synaptic.

    Hi there! Welcome aboard!

    You could go with Arch, Gentoo or Debian Testing.
    There are others available, but those would be some quick reference for you.

    Thanks for the assistance. It has given me much to think about.

    With any luck it will stop me distro hopping.
