I just picked the latest copy of Linux Format magazine.  It comes with new 
Distro CD and a software CD every month.  This month is Redmond Linux which 
is now calles Lycoris.  It gets high marks for being an easy to use and very 
ms-like for beginners.  The magazine is a little steep ($14) but it comes 
with plenty of information for newbies and experts alike.  

otherwise, you should check out libranet.com and get a old version of it 
(1.9.1), which is one iso image.  It's and awesome debain-based distro for a 
beginner.  And they have an amazing maillist, which I still use even though I 
have long switch to pure debian.

Oh, and everything Kevin suggested it a good idea, too.  :)

good luck,

Uzoma
