I really don't like Micro$oft's Sindows 95 (IMHO Bloated,  too slow  
and it's multitasking is chunky) so I thought I  should give LINUX a  
try. However.... 


I download using a modem connection so I would really appreciate  
if anyone could help me get a linux which is good and, 

1. can be downloaded in parts that I want (kernel, network support  
etc....) 

2. requires the smallest total download size to get up and running( I 
 really can't download 160MB of files etc...). 


I had a look at many sites before posting however all the LINUX's I  
found were HUGE(~100MB). I really don't now much about LINUX  
but a ~15MB download (if it is possible) to get up and running  
would be OK for me. 


So it would be great if anyone can help me about my problem. 


Thanks for your valuable time, 

Kalum.
