I am very put out with the big MS wanting money every time their product fails and I have to reinstall it! I've been reading about zorin and it sound very interesting to me. Now I find their are several builds of it to choose from and I'm not sure which one to try. I am wanting to intall to a flash drive just to try it out before 86ing xp. My needs are simple, just need to boot my machine, get me online, store and work with some pictures. Maybe a little html and watch tv shows/movies online. Maybe some office stuf now and then. thats really about all I need. Can anybody give me a little push toward one distribution that will sell me on zorin? Keep in mind I've never used linux.

What are the specs of your machine? If your specs are low, try Zorin Lite. If your specs are at least normal, try Zorin 6 Core.
