Linux? Which one is the best?

[distefano]

Redhat is the one that is the best for evry purpuse.
that's my opinium.

with nice regards Distefano

From a commercial point of view. You would do well to learn Centos. It is free and exactly the same as RedHat Linux.

Honestly for 99% of people that are new to linux, Ubuntu will be the most comfortable as it is geared to novice users, hardcore users also like ubuntu since its faster to use as it requires less configuration.

i found ubuntu great as a first step to linux from windows... tons of support and a good noob friendly community plus there's tons of books, eBooks and online tutorial courses out there for ubuntu geared towards users crossing over from windoze

Slackware is a very ligthweight Linux distributions - but I won't recommend it for beginners because you have to edit some config files in order to get the graphical subsystem working properly.

For Newbies and old computers: Vectorlinux

Debian Lenny is also good for beginners. I myself like Arch Linux, lots of manual config thoug

Im using fedora for db server,debian for web server and mandriva for gateway routing. ubunto for my dualboot laptop since it has a supporting drivers. servers run on text on operation so no big deal for graphic drivers.

My word goes for Ubuntu, beginner or expert.

Personally I tried most of famous Linux distros, but found Ubuntu the best... It's highly customizable, with a vast free software support.

I tried Fedora and OpenSuse. But I'm not feeling OK with RPM packages. What I need are almost perfectly provided by Debian packages. So Ubuntu is my choice.

I do programming and web designing, and beside I do a bit of music with tools from Ubuntu Studio are nicely do for me. Everything is just fine with Ubuntu.

I tried fedora,suse, red hat, but so far ubuntu has the best support for "exotic" and not so exotic hardware... Easy install. Closed source drivers included.
So far he best distro.
