    Yes. Due to not being connected to The telephone network I could not get DSL. I had to go with cutting-edge unwired, compete with sucky plan.
    I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

      Since I'm most concerned about the fees I think its pointless to upgrade from 256K to 1MB for an extra £10 a month, since I can download everything I want now, and have enough time to watch/play/burn it before something else comes off the queue. And I end up with less crap I dont even check.

            I've just Googled 'Gentoo' to see if it's anything interesting/useful, turned and ran away as soon as I saw Linux.

                Yeah, you probably drive without a license, either.

                  UR , I'm not sadistic enough to recommend Gentoo to a guy who does not know a lot about Linux , or who does not have the time/priocessing power/patience required to compile everything from source . It would be much better recommending FC3 if you want to recommend Linux to newbies .

                    He could always do a stage 3 install, that wouldn't be too bad.

                    The fact is I am hesitant in recommending any distro that uses RPM because of dependency hell. I'd say Knoppix is good for testing the waters, and ubuntu or straight debian is a good choice for regular users.
