is a distribution that has newbie as one of the configure options. The Newbie option should have only a few choices, Gnome or KDE desktop, no questions about partitioning, it should assume the user wants to keep a Windows partition for now. How many Windoze users know what a partition is? The configuration shouldn't include any programing tools, or half a dozen test editors. It should include OO.org for wordprocessing, etc. User name and root user and passwords should be explained and chosen, additional users can be added later.
Once its configured the password box appears, user is prompted and printer, modem, and email configuration is done. A minimum of printed documentation should be included, explaining what to do if something doesn't work. The documentation should list resources included with the distribution and how to access it, and use it. Hopefully with a desktop icon. The browser should include useful links to useful linux sites.
