1) A live cd will run MUCH slower then it will if installed.
2) Use linux.org to find a suitable distribution
3) I use and LOVE debian Linux.

The ubuntu live cd is pretty nice, I didn't find any errors. Its pretty easy I don't think theres much to expalin besides pressing f12 to boot from disc or whatever key you press to do that. And as not a stoner said, it runs faster if installed.

Red Hat Linux has always been my fav

I personally love Red Hat/Fedora Core, but ive only been able to get them to work in school. i went through 4 DVDs and 6 CDs trying to get various distros to work on my desktop at home, and i havent had a goddamn bit of luck. it got to be really frustrating, so ive temporarily given up.

However, when linux is installed and is working properly, its a beauty. I love it much more than windows when it works.

Give this a try http://www.slax.org/ Its a Live CD version of Slackware.

Slackware is my fav Linux distro, very BSD like, it has a much nicer init system then RedHat and friends.

My choice these days is OpenBSD (not linux) for none desktop stuff and OS X for anything else (I love my apple laptops

)
