"For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by
doing them" (Aristotle), Beco's signature.
How does somebody learn how to use forks and knives, chopsticks or even
Windows?
Linux live CDs are useful, but shouldn't be used to chose a Linux
distro. Simply start with one distro and after a while install two other
distros to the same machine, if the chosen distro shouldn't fit to your
needs.
