Thumbs up
Slackware is the best distro. I tried several distro like Fedora 3, Mandrake 10.1, Arch Noodles, Ubuntu, Debian, aLinux, Suse 10.0 but found slackware the most fastest disrto on my hardware. Debian is also good but the only thing is that one have to download too much of packages or cds/dvds to get the interested ones.

Vote for slackware.

Why are people still trying to influence voting when the polls are closed?

I guess they just express their opinion, but not to influence the poll (as you say it has been closed). After all, I have the impression that the polls are primarily a way to ignite discussion and rouse interest.http://images.linuxquestions.org/que...cons/icon7.gif

favorite Linux distro
my favorite Linux distro has to be Ubuntu with KDE desktop. I have tried others ( SUSE, MEPIS, Linspire ), but the main reason I use Ubuntu is because it recognizes all my hardware on my Compaq Evo N1015v laptop ( 3 years old ), and best of all, it was the only Linux distro that recognized my Netgear wireless card (WG311) without having to use NDSwrapper and all the hassles involved with getting that set up and running. I am happy with Ubuntu.

My view is still an absolute beginner's view:
Therefore Suse and Ubuntu. Perhaps Kubuntu, because KDE is better for absolute beginner. Ubuntu shows the way to Debian.
