[Coco] Fedora 6 DVD ISO

[PaulH96636 at aol.com]

At a computer show yesterday, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and Ubuntu for 64bit CDs were 
made
available as freebies (ver 6.06LTS, 6.10, 6.06LTS respectively).  They are 
'Live CD's 
thus allowing a PC to be up and running w/o having a HD installed, which is 
exactly what
I tried on a PII/300 laptop.  First time ever running a Linux based system 
and it even went
online using a 3-com Etherlink III PC card.  Not bad for a newbie..... ;-)   
The minimum ram
was said to be 256mb but I could turn up only 192mb and it still worked; even 
Firefox ran
well.  There is also an option to install Ubuntu.

[I downloaded both Debian and Fedora DVD ISO's (one of them, was two
DVD's but I don't remember as I haven't burned them yet). I have been
taking the easy way out with Linspire (which is Debian basically, but
with some additions, etc) -rob]
