Linux is Linux is Linux is Linux.... My suggestion is to try a few different systems to see what you like. The major differences between the different distrobutions are the install and package management. Red Hat and most Red Hat variants (like Mandrake) have really slick installs and ok package management. But Debian by far has the most slick system with dselect and apt-get. If you are a bit of a purist I would also suggest running slackware - they just released a new version too! At the end of the day you have to decide on your own what you like. For myself I've tried Caldera, Slackware, Mandrake, Red Hat, and Debian. I am now a loyal Debian user - but that doesn't mean everyone should be because I or someone else says so....you have to figure that out for yourself. Thanks, djw
