What is the best Linux desktop based operating system to install on AMD athalon laptop?
As it is free to download and install any Linux based operating system, it is possible to try a variety - Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Puppy, and so on - before making a final choice. If Windows is already the laptop's operating system, use the Linux CDs as a 'Live CD', which allows you to try the new OS without making changes to the hard-drive (work is done in RAM only). Once a choice has been made, either install the Linux OS alongside Windows - dual-booting, or allow Linux to wipe the hard-drive and install Linux only. Another method is to use WUBI (use Google for details) to install Ubuntu as a file on a Windows machine.
