If you wish to replace your OS, check out Linux
SNIPs
And at the risk of upsetting people with this OT thread, I would add try
Knoppix before you go any further. Knoppix is a sort of try before you
buy Linux system which doesn't even need installing on your computer. It
loads completely from CD/DVD. This will let you try configuring your
hardware and see what works and what doesn't. It does run slower because
of the CD environment but it will give you a taste of Linux. Also google
for your local LUG.

If Knoppix works, and you want simple, look at Linspire.com. Not free,
but the original install is simple and applications are installed from a
service with one click.
