Yeh running linux has been on my mind for a while, i have used the boot up version SLAX at college to get round all there restrictions now i would like a system with it on as im interested in security and things related

, I will also have access to a Laptop with windows XP so i still have it for a backup.
I am going straight for the wireless connection

though my wireless router is next to where the PC will go so ethernet will be easy to hook up
I will look into it and have a look at comments etc.
