Hi,

My Brother has an Inspiron, and has been running RH 7.3 for a bit with no
hang ups.
Hes not very skilled with Linux, so I was surprised to find out that it
installed
without a hitch. ( no funky drivers etc... ).  Everything works on his unit.

Ok, I got a good question for you anyone that can
answer:

I'd like to setup linux on my new laptop but I
haven't used linux seriously since the days of
slackware from about 4 years ago. Which linux
distribution would be best for a Dell Inspiron in
the sense of good drivers and power management.
Also, would anyone be willing to volunteer some
time perhaps at the next meeting or before the
next meeting to give me a hand?
Right now I'm using windows xp home (bleh) so I'd
like to use dual boot since my games won't run in
linux.
