[kwlug-disc] Desktop linux for Gramps

[Insurance Squared Inc.]

I'm starting to build a desktop machine for my mother, followed shortly 
by one for my sister.  Neither are computer literate, this is an 
email/web home machine basically.

Any thoughts on how to build this machine? i.e. I would naturally 
install Mandriva with KDE because that's what I'm used to.  Any push to 
another distro or desktop?  Any must have apps other than what's 
typically installed with a regular distro?
