I agree completely. I think every Linux should try the other "flavors."
Kinda like Kool-Aid. :0)
Personally, I've installed most of the distros. I don't think that I've missed
any of the major ones. But each distro handles things different.
I currently have 3 machines at home.
JEDI -- RedHat 7.1
R2D2 -- Mandrake 8.0
YODA -- FreeBSD.
But I have installed:
Caldera 2.4
RedHat 6.2, 7.0, 7.1
Mandrake 7.1, 7.2, 8.0
SuSe 7.0
Slackware 8.0
OpenBSD
FreeBSD
TurboLinux
BSDi
Debian (Even though I could never get the install to complete! I tried!
:0)
I liked SuSE, but I like Mandrake better. Of all the distros, I know
Mandrake/RedHat the most, but I really like FreeBSD. I've considered
making that my workstations, but I already have Mandrake set up for
DualHead and I like my dual monitor set up on my Mandrake box!
