I got my Mandrakemove CD in the mail today, popped it into a Win2K box, and 5 minutes later, KDE desktop heaven! My daughter & I played Tux Racer for a while (my wife even took a turn piloting the penguin into the pines), and now I'm surfing.

Very easy, very intuitive, very impressive!

Yes it is a nice piece of work. No problem booting on my machine, whereas another live CD based on Mandrake needs those "geeky" command line options to boot to a gui.

I gave my MandrakeMove CD I burnt to a co-worker to discover Linux. I can't wait to hear how it goes. Their family reboots.... uh... I mean... runs ME and has no idea other OS's exist.

First unpleasant discovery...

128M RAM is barely enough.
Machine with 192M runs much better.
256M+ should rock.

[edit]RAM upgraded. 256M does rock.[/edit]

yeah, livecd's can get pretty RAM-hungry, but that's because it's loaded in the ram....

i have a friend who actually is running a system without a hard drive. just gnoppix! but he has like 15 computers...eh
