Net-Runner-2 is an excellent distribution for a newbie (to Linux).
Even though it is in the middle weight category (MiBs) it has everything one needs if one is connected to the internet.
It is a mix of KDE 4 and Gnome without the groggy grossness (Graphic intensity) of SuSe and Mandriva on the graphic (face) front.
They have done a good job of integrating and mixing (it is neither tea nor coffee) the two.
K3b is a value added introduction.
Software management is good and in the tradition of Redhat have placed the packages in categories to select.
Only missing package for me was Skype to download. I hope they will add it next time around.
Another value added contribution is Gambase (for newbies to do visual basic like programming).
RetRunner is something one should have in one's wallet.
Change over rather the mixture (cocktail) may have teething problem but surely nothing the Linux developers cannot address.
Well done boys and girls.
