I really am a Linux noob and after being told good things about antiX i have decided to try it out. Just hope i haven't took on something i can't handle?

Welcome to antiX, kyrel.

If you need help, just ask. Have a read of the antiX FAQ as well. Lots of good information there.

Some advice - keep frequent backups of any important data. That way, you don't have to be afraid of learning because even if you bomb it, you can always reinstall. *speaks from experience, but it was good fun!
