I use Lindows 3.0. It installed in 7 minutes on an old laptop and I have the basic applications I need downloaded from their software aisles. The cool thing is with Click N Run Express one can download big files like StarOffice in a matter of minutes down to the desktop even over a dial-up connection! Its stable and I haven't had a dreaded blue screen of death even once. Its basically a Windows manager built over an open source Debian distribution. Lycoris is similar but is based on Caldera. Either one lets you enjoy Linux without having to learn complicated commands and you can customize the Graphical User Interface either Linux distro comes with to your liking.

I checked out the Lycoris and Lindows sites. The Lindows site impressed me.
