Do we have any linux users in the house?

I installed Mandrake 10 yesterday, and I am loving it...never going to touch windows again.

I want to learn to use linux... ditch windows. 8)
my harddrive isn't very big though, not sure if theres enough room for windows and linux and files on both drives. I'd have to partition it with some extra room on each drive, and that would prolly put me over the top Sad

thinking of getting another computer (one my dad got from the dump) to learn linux on. where can I get madrake 10? or any fairly recent version of mandrake.

I had red hat 9 on my comp for a few weeks.. I got annoyed with it because I had to keep switching to windows to do certain things... maybe once I have more time to learn it a bit better I will have it on my machine again

ive only used slackware and i think its awesome, which is what i wil probaly install if i want it. the problem with linux is that it doesn't have support for on-board lan cards so i can't have internet
