The first distro I ever stuck with for any amount of time Was Xandros 1.0, which a friend provided for me. Except for the fact that it ran an old version of KDE it was perfect for me, but the old KDE crippled my work. Enter Xandros 2.0.

"This machine Was Running XP Pro on the whole disc, I booted from the Xandros 2.0 Deluxe disc and auto portioned out the NTFS drive and set to install Xandros 2.0 Deluxe (X2D).
