hello
i like PCLinux, i like Sam, i like PLF (not a distro)
but i have very little experience with them.
and most of all, i like the Mandrake mailinglists:
there are warm-hearted people here,
which is rare on technical mailinglists.
Ubuntu for example advertises "humanity onto others"
while encouraging a gang mentality on their mailing lists.
dissent and open discourse is not welcome there.
the PCLinux lists suffer from a lack of warmth.
and MandrakeSoft/Mandriva is too commercial for me.
comparing the products though, what do you recommend ?
i like email, web, p2p, multimedia and simple but complete.
kind regards     philippe

Hmmm..... I've started to play with PCLinuxOS and enjoy all things there 
to date and you can look at it as a LiveCD first.

Still, "for a complete system" and the most helpful list I've been on, 
then here, with Mandrake, remains unbeatable.
