You might want to try Tom's Root Boot. It's a single diskette image that includes the basic operating system and pared down versions of some of the most essential utilities. Last time I checked it was freely distributed. Find it at http://www.toms.net/rb/

What Linux distro is the fastest?

There is no scientific measurement for how "fast" an operating system is. You can only compare things like: 1. How fast an operating system boots. The fastest booting desktop distro is probably Mach Boot. 2. How much or how little RAM / processor power the system needs to run. The desktop distro with the lowest system requirements is probably Damn Small Linux. 3. How little space it requires. Tiny Core Linux requires only 10 MB for a very basic desktop system 4. The desktop that can best take advantage of hardware, such as video cards. Foresight Linux is designed to show off the latest Linux desktop environments, all with flashy effects and stuff.

What is best OS among Linux and windows and reason it?

Linux Mint is the best distro in my opinion because it is easy to use and you can use any desktop environment for it, but really what distribution you use is up to your needs if you have certain needs you might need a different distro. As for Windows I do not really use windows on any home machines because of viruses and other security problems, but the best release of windows in my opinion is Windows XP because it can still run on older hardware, and it will give new hardware a boost.
