Starting own Point of Presence

pbuckne

Xandros Desktop 3.0 Deluxe: Perfect Distro for Xp user IMHO

pr-man
I am brand new to Linux and I have been looking around at the various distros. A friend of mine had a new copy of Xandros Desktop 3. 0 Deluxe so I decided to try that on my laptop. Install was a breeze and it even auto resized my NTFS XP partition so I could dual boot Xp and Xandros.
