Question by Zech S: What’s the best linux distro for a computer without an internet connection?
Considering only this as a criterion, what’s the best linux distribution that comes to mind?
Thanks

A distro that comes on a DVD, not a CD (you get more packages that way) and one that has compiled packages, not some thing that you have to build each package from scratch.
Linux Format and Linux Magazine (out of the UK, not the US mag by the same name) both provide DVDs that mean that criteria.
You can get Ubuntu, Mandriva, Suse, and other such distros like that. Just avoid multi-distro DVDs which have smaller, less complete versions since you won’t be able to get online to add or upgrade packages.
