Default What Linux distro for me?

Hi guys i comming back to this forum after a looooooooooooooooong time & hope u guys do remember me.

Well the first thing i wanna do is get rid on windows (not exactly) as I have had enough of Microsoft with me and now wanna use Linux. I had tried linux 8.2 which came with digit's first aniversary issue and had to leave it bcos i was having problem with the mouse and was a dumbo in comps. But now i want Linux.

But what Linux do u suggest to me. Mandrake or Fedora or any other.

My hardware configuration is:

P3 733 MHz Processor.
Intel 810e Motherboard.
64 MB SD RAM
20 GB HDD + 2 GB HDD
52X CD ROM (Burning will be done by taking the HDD to friends place)

plus what is i586 & x86_64. i think mine is i586 but am confuse

Another thing is i thought linux was supposed to be free then why do they ask me to pay for downloading

Plus one more question. How do u pronounce Linux.
Li-nux
or
Lin-ux.


Thank u guys in advance
