Jim,
1. It stays far back from the bleeding edges.
2. It is suitable for modern and older systems.
3. You can install just as much as you

Indeed. Slackware.

I recommend Mint Linux.
1) So easy to install even a management person could do it.
2) Derived from the stable and proven Debian Linux distribution.
3) Codecs are included in the base install. Multimedia support is excellent.
4) Libre Office is part of the base install.
Note: I have used Linux

Rich, I just looked at the Slackware site and I'm concerned that they
haven't done much since 2013. I used to use Redhat in the past.

As mostly a user now I find Linux Mint (LTS versions) with the Mate
desktop manager works great. For servers I've started moving to Debian.
I started with Redhat 3.0.3, moved up the version chain with them for
awhile, then did Fedora, finally CentOS (and with a smattering of the
other Redhat
I used Mint some and liked it a lot. Not as a real desktop though, just for
a lightweight VM.
For the OP, it could be helpful for people to hear some more specifics
about what you want to do with the box. Is this for a home desktop system,
are you a developer, what is the scenario you're using it

My reading of your request is that you'd prefer stability over having
the latest and greatest features.

Jim,
I used Red Hat from 4.0 (1997) to 7.1 (2003) and Slackware since then.
I don't recall when 14.1 (the current

I use Linux Mint for some multimedia stuff, stuff like Audacity for

set up any friends who are trying Linux for the first time with Linux

I'll echo the endorsement for CentOS 7. It's reasonably new enough to offer
new-ish packages for desktop use, while also being the gold standard for
stability and long term support (EOL in June 2024). Add in EPEL and elrepo

Hi all,
Wanted to send a quick followup to last nights talk.
I realized this morning that I mistakenly pulled up the standby LB node
when we were looking at heka's CPU utilization during the QA (should've
known when the CPU use was on the floor...)
In any case, the *correct* CPU utilization
