 Well, how do, Tom?

 Just that I heard 10.0 (At least their "Community" release.) was
a little dogged, and I too found a number of "Bombs" dropped when
I was running it.  I used Mandrake 6.0 and I found it a lot better than the
10.0c. For the plug and go, I have had good experience so far with Fedora,
and SimplyMEPIS. The later is a so called Live CD, that you can boot from
the CD, and keep your work in RAM. Knoppix has good reports, but I haven't
been able to boot it yet. Likely just a minimum requirement I'm not
meeting. It too is a Live CD.

 I'm no authority though, so you'd have to look elsewhere for further
recommendations.
