I mostly use SuSe, myself, but even that is a bit much for the average
Windows user. I also use Win XP and there's a big difference in
hand-holding. Lindows is probably easier for many than the run of the mill
Linux distro.

Check out Knoppix - a Linux distro that runs off the CD
and packs in all the bells and whistles, including WINE
(for running Win32 apps), OpenOffice, Mozilla, etc. It
doesn't touch your existing OS intsllation at all. You
can download and burn your own copy for free. And I'm
pretty sure that most PC hardware (even older stuff) is
faster than the hardware underlying the Lindows PCs. ;-)
