Bruce,

What version of Linux do you want to use? What do you want to do with 
Linux? If you just want to use the internet and some productivity 
programs then pretty much anything will do. Personally, I would say go 
with a gnu flavor, like Debian, Libranet, Mepis and Santa Fe Linux are 
all options. If you have Mepis try it as a liveCD then install it if you 
like it.
