I've tried a few distributions but got frustrated and went back to Slackware.  The others do a Windows-ish program "installation" that puts files who-knows-where and default to a pokey graphics interface.  

There are two Linux boxes in our house: one only used for copying LP's and tapes to CD's and one for copying files from DOS disks to COCO disks.  Any real work gets done on a coco.
