# locate whatever
# whereis whatever

or simply check the INSTALL and README files for the default location.

For rpm's
# rpm --help

OH NO! Im getting a tad nervous. People are mentioning "interdependicies" and "poor GUI performance".

Hopefully Choco just has hardware that isn't as good as mine, and it's not KDE's fault. I have 433 celeron, 384mb ram, and a voodoo 3 2000 PCI. How do you measure up Choco?

About these scary interdepndicies, can't I just pop on Mandrake and mess around with it some to get used to it/learn it?  Surely im safe from this terrifying concept that I do not fully understand.  ;)

from previous mentions

i hate using the console to do stuff, but thats just me.

Gnome never seems to work right for me. at my workstation the bottom navigation bar seems to have disappeared, making it a complete pain in the ass. so i used kde instead.

What a bunch of whiners (especially Choochoo, I'm getting pretty fed up with his lameness).  "I don't like this because I don't know how to... but I am too lazy to read....". Stick with Windows then, and stick to the Windows forums.
