I was, is and am going to be on Gentoo. Just want to install Linux to my friend's PC. I can download installation CD iso (or two), but the main problem is, that PC during next few months will have dialup connection (33600) only. As a result, I need to choose Linux with minimal net traffic in mind (just security updates will be sufficient). There are no any special demands (OOo, images and PDF viewer, Firefox, Thunderbird and Krusader (or other two panel file manager) will be a sufficient apps set for beginning, + booting to level 5). Suggestions? P.S. You see, there is a little sense to address this question to, say, suse or ubuntu or other candidate's community :-) - so, excuse please for OT. Andrew
