I would highly recommend RedHat 8.0. It's really working fine and is in my
opinion a good replacement for Windows. And the stability of Linux is not a

To be honest there are a few things I cannot do yet with Linux, so I need to
keep a Windows partition. However it's a just a Windows ME partition, not a XP
one. So I will not suffer in the future the pain of Microsoft activation
process.
