Wished I knew enough programming to do that [/b]

Anyway what is Distro?[/quote]
Distro is short for Distribution. Linux is the kernel on its own. Several companies like Red Hat and Mandrake, put the kernel, along with lots of other software together with an installer package, to create a distribution. If you want more information about the distros take a look at www.distrowatch.com.
