People working with graphic wont vary fast machines I never had any problem with this machines consider to be old here. The student even play "counter strike" on them. But the machines that they want to keep here are the ones over 1 GHz
(1000 MHz)

Discussing Linux destros can be very emotional. I like Slackware to. But when I read beginners stuff Slackware are never recommended for the beginner cumming from a Windows or Mac world it is known to be bit "nerdish". I know that Debian also is not recommended for beginners but. Ubunto should be very good for beginners. I think Ubunto is the most widely popular Linux Distro of the present time.
