Thanks again for everyone's input... Doing a little bit of reading of my own Damn Small and Vector Linux look like my best bets due to the outdated hardware I'm going to be running this on. Since this is my first go-around with Linux which of these two is more user friendly? They both seem to be geared towards my dumpster derived system. I should probably install one on VPC before actually going through with this to see how it works, unless that's a bad idea? I was a little surprised Microsoft would even let me install Linux using VPC, so I'm a little wary of the results I'd get installing and/or running Linux in VPC, any advice there? Thanks again.
