Beginner Linux
OK, I'm sure this question has been posted before, but I'm to lazy to search, so here goes:
Which version of Linux would be best for a beginner?
I don't need any fluff, so even a gui is not neccessary.
Also, I will be running it in Microsoft Virtual PC to see
if I like it.
I heard that Slackware was the purest form, but I wanted to
run it past you guys first.
Any suggestions?

Since you posted this in the Linux+ forum, I assume you are going for that exam. In that case I recommend going for Fedora. Even though it is a vendor-neutral exam, it's a bit Redhat-oriented.

Linux is a Kernel. The current kernel version can be found at www.kernel.org
You are asking for a disto/OS.

Fedora is for people who dont want to understand things really. no offense!
