Hello everybody,

I'm sorry if I sound awkward to some of you, but I'm totally new
to the world of Linux.
My question is depressingly simple:

I'd like to install Linux (preferably SuSE Linux) alongside Windows
XP on the same PC.
Which version is most recommended for that purpose?

And is it possible to get somewhere a free version of it (i.e.
that I don't have to pay for)?

Thanks very much,

Have a nice day,

AM
