Start running Linux Opp System

I want to start running Linux Opp System. What computer is best?

Linux runs on many different processors, including intel 386 and newer(PC and latest Mac ), motorola 680x0 series, Powerpc(macs) Sparc 4s,4m,and 4u (Sun )

Most hardware is supported with the exception of Win-printers and Win modems. Some wireless cards are not support because the hardware makers do not releasing the techical specifications for the chipset.

Yes a normal PC can do the trick. You can get a used one that is a couple of years old, and more likely to be fully supported.
