[plug] distro question: 'standard'?

[John Knight]

G'day all!

A friend of mine is considering Linux and I don't want her to have a 
redhatted or mandraked version, if you know what I mean. ;) RH 7.3 wasn't 
too bad, because KDE had a standard menu included, with a standard desktop, 
but everything onwards is bluecurved, and mandrake haven't had a  standard 
desktop for years. SuSE doesn't look too far from it, the last version I 
used of SuSE was 7.3, althougha little unstable, it could be reconfigured 
for standard KDE menus, etc. Can you still do that in 8.2? Are there any 
other distributions that anyone would recommend that doesn't have a command 
line based installation program (ie. Debian)? I don't want to put her off 
you see.......

Standard KDE is a MUST. ;)
cheers!
John
