This is one of those questions were you can ask 100 people and get 102 answers. I have recently found the joys of slackware linux. It has been the most stable performer of the 10+ distributions I have tried. Plus it has a totally smooth logo (how can you beat a penguin with a pipe?) Check it out at http://www.slackware.org I would stay away from the Fedora Core territory as they seem to be headed into the auto-magic windows-esque area. Jesse R.
