shame the ubuntu version they are offering is out of date and superceeded by a far improved version...

just in case anybody wants it and its good for a linux beginner and the most commonly used distribution.

Linux Mint, derived from Ubuntu is cool also and is suitable for newbies. The latest Helena is built from karmic koala.

Hi
I use mint as the only OS and have done on my desktop for over a year, I wonder if Docky works on there.

It is very good indeed. Professionally I've been Windows based for many years and have just taken another look at Ubuntu. Really impressed by the new version and would certainly recommend it as a good one for Windows users to try out.

I tried many many distros during the years, but i'm running on gentoo for the last 4-5 years.
Ubuntu is very newbie friendly and also currently the most popular, and easy on the windows 2 linux transition, but for my taste too windowish for the same reasons.

Also, whats with the dash shell :s

Mandriva is good too, easy as Ubuntu

It recommended Fedora and OpenSuse to me.
I've used Fedora in the past and am currently using OpenSuse.
I like Suse and I'm a bit fan of KDE.
Find Gnome quite boring, but that's my own opinion.

Slackware forever! Everything is clean and simple, with NO underground/background staff happening without your intervention. Ubuntu seems a lot like Windows in problems and ways of solving them. Plus, every package is as close to its original form as possible. I use it from very important servers for the clients to desktops. With slackware you can never go wrong.

All are ok depends for what you use them.
eg : Ubuntu : Great as Windows replaicement
Centos/RedHat if you use it as a web/database server:rock:
Suse not so great but used alot for SAP applications.:banghead:

The better question is what do you want it to do for you ?

My favourite Debian for over 10 Years :D

Also as webserver.

Ubuntu, Redhat and Suse are nice for beginners :boxing:

I also use Slackware 13.1/64bit with GSB Gnome addition. I love it! It wasn't friendly, but I made it friendly.

Ubuntu supports new hardware, is easy to install and use and offers more software packages compared to other distros.

I began with Mandrake long time ago and have Fedora in my desktop now. Easy to install and use.
But in my old laptop I prefer Ubuntu, better fot tweaking.
