Hello everybody !
I've been monitoring this mailing list for a couple of months and received answers to my questions about OO. Thanks to the benefactors. My experience with OO goes back to 2005 and I'm very satisfied with it. Now I would like to cross the Rubicon and eliminate, gradually, XP from my machine. I've read many posts relating this or that bug/difficulty of OO with some specific distributions of Linux. In your experience, which one would be the best to start with among the different distros : Mandriva, Ubuntu, Suse, Debian or whatever ? Thank you for your advice. A.Muller

Many Linux distributions provide a "LiveCD" for you to try out Linux without needing to install it first. Ubuntu and Kubuntu for example (to keep in line with the other two recommendations you've already received) do this by default, as do most other Linux distributions. You download the CD ISO, burn it to CD, pop it in your CDROM drive and reboot your computer. The computer will start up and run Linux from the CDROM. It is an excellent and risk free way to test drive Linux without having to install it.

OpenOffice.org usually comes bundled with the Linux distributions and it is generally part of the default install, so you can be back into OpenOffice.org right away :-)
