If you want to try out linux do this:

1. Download linux
2. Burn to cd's
3. Make a linux partition
4. Install

ReiserFS is a filesystem, but you don't have to worry about it now. It's just a new feature.

You could buy linux too. And get lots of apps and books.

I have Linux-Mandrake and on that demo it showed how to do that. Do I have to do that?

I thinkthat the reisfer fs is raid - uses multiple drives

No, it doesn't (have to). Resierfs ( http://www.namesys.org ) is a journaling filesystem - meaning no fscks after reboots.

I blew it, URL is fixed now
