Hi,<br />
<br />
For my networking class, I would like to present to the students a distro of Linux that is similar to what PCBSD is to FreeBSD. &nbsp;I need something user friendly and easy to install. &nbsp;Also a free or trial version if possible. &nbsp;I know thats alot to ask but I'm hoping you Linux guru's can help me out. &nbsp;Even if it's not a Linux distro just an easy OS to setup.<br />
<br />
Thank you

Linux Distro

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).

Linux Distributions

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.
