[ale] linux recommendations

[Nathan J. Underwood]

I'm a big fan of Red Hat / Fedora.  I've not had a chance to play any 
with the wireless on Linux yet, but I've done quite a bit with shared 
printers.  I don't think that you should have a problem with either 
(wireless or printer) if you're using any recent distro.  The top three 
for 'ease of use' for a new user (as I understand it) would be Mandrake 
(I've not used it much, but when I did [ver 7.x], it seemed very easy), 
Red Hat / Fedora, and SuSE.
