I personally like slackware. But RedHat is easy to 
get up and running if you -really- don't know much about anything at all. You 
can read the helpful manual and be goin' in just a little bit. 

Suse also provides a nice user interface if you 
want to look into that, but I find Suse a bit "clunky" in comparison with RedHat 
or Slackware. For the ultra newbie, I'd look into just using RedHat. 

Sincerely,

Alex

  Hi, I am a total Linux newbie, in fact I don't 
  think that you could even call me a newbie yet!

  I have a spare computer, celeron 600MHz, 64MB and 
  15GBHDD, and I would like to know how I can get a hold of a decent Linux OS, 
  one that has a good user interface and does not cost much and is relatively 
  straight forward to set up.

  Could you please advise me

  Thanx!
