repartition your drive with PartitionMagic - U need to have at least 1Gb for your root partition and some swap space and when you come to the toint of selecting software to install DON'T select ALL packages %-) it is way to much then U nees write now try to start with KDE workstation !!!ONLY!!! try to find out what is all about and then make your desision
about latest version - hard question - you'll get the answer later %-)

Hi,

You can go to this site to know more about the different Linux distros and pick one that could suit you.

http://distrowatch.com

Some are suitable for desktop use, others for servers, some are easier to set up than others.
I am afraid you can install quickly, but to know the proper use of Linux will take you some time,
depending on your willingness to learn..
