Hi, I'm new to installing linux on virtual box.
What is the most idiot proof and easiest Linux to install and is there a particular version of virtual box that it's best to stick with?
I have a windows 7 system at the moment.
Regards Steve

Re: Which version of linux to install
That's similar to asking "What's your favorite food?". Chances are that if you ask 5 people you're going to get 6 answers. 
Personally, I've tried several distributions and one of my favorites is Linux Mint (Cinnamon). But the good thing about VBox is that you can try any or all of them if you want...
Actually while researching the answer, I just saw that they released a new version. Time to upgrade
