Which one of the versions should I chose ?
I just getting into this new world. and the confusion thing is that is there are many versions and I don't know which one of them I need.
obviously something relatively simple to install.
It's an Intel machine.

Thanks !

It depends on your actuall hardware, you have to look at each distro`s "supported hardware" list. But i personally recommend iPC release. Its the most up to date one with great hardware support base. So i say go for iPC 10.5.6 release.

If you do not know such things, maybe you should reconsider doing this. This is not for n00bs. It is not like dropping in a DVD and clicking Next. If you don't know what you are doing, you WILL hose your current windows installation.

I soooo agree. Unless you understand at a techy level how a computer and a computer OS works, go buy a real mac. Osx86 is best for techies...for now anyway...

Otherwise, if you want a fairly easy install try iPC 10.5.6 distro.
iPC 10.5.6 Lenovo ThinkCentre M41 Pentium D -- VooDoo Kernel 9.5.0 Audigy 2 ZS Works!!. 7600GT EFI String (EFI Studio!).Everything works (ethernet, SATA, USB, IDE drives).
