Default help me install linux....

ummm...... so....
i wanted to install linux just to get the flavour of it cause when i tried knopix... it didn't satisfy me because it didn't detect my modem........
anyways.....
now i have two options.. plz suggest..... shud i install Fedora Core or SuSE 9.2? which one has a better and neet interface and which one is more user friendly... and which one can run windowz modems........

now.. i have 16GiG free on my single hard-disk....
i run an x86 (intel brookdale chipset)machine with windowsXP home installed on one HUGE partition and have my paging file on another partition of 1 GiG.... i have 512 MB SD RAM.... P4..1.6Ghz.......

so now please tell me step by step how to install linux...ie. all the info like disk format, partition size any precautions and stuff..... Please help me install LInux... i suppose that both of those linux versions are available on the Digit DVDs.... isn't it?

QUERY 2: is linux a form of UNIX?
