Hi Ram Sir,
I am sure i will be able to restore your confidence in Linux and open source. On our front we will make every effort to ensure that the Linux is made easy for the end users.
Infact the current state of Linux is that there are multiple initiatives going on to catch up with proprietry software (especially Windows), in the process you will come across multiple versions (distros) of Linux. Each one of them is unique and has its own features and set of specialization though all of them are now converging fast.
These are some drawbacks of open source but the very spirit with which we have reached so far is worth acknowledging and trust me sir, the day is not far when you will see Linux replacing Windows not only on the server side, but desktops too.
In your case i think the best version is Red Hat / Fedora. I will make sure that i carry them with me when i visit you. Or else if you have a special affinity towards the Mandrake magic, then we will bring that one too.
regards, tarun

Thanks, Tarun
Perhaps we should think of the next weekend -- it may otherwise be very diffficult.
But I must warn you that right now I am terribly disappointed with Linux -- my attempt toload Mandrake for the 4-5 weeks have failed. And right now I can say more Windows' reliability!!
best
Ram Reddy
