Which Distro is Good for Software and Security?
 
Hi, I am interested in Linux security and about distros that come, such as by DVD with an abundance of software, which distros are the better ones for this. Also I like compiz fusion desktop effects.

I have a pentium 4 dual core desktop and a pentium 4 laptop.

I also want to dual boot.

Most distros come with a boat load of software, when you download the DVD ISO of it. I prefer Fedora, Redhat, CentOS - all pretty much the samething. But they do incorporate SELinux, and have a Boat load of Software. IMO if you take my Opinion "recommendation" I would choose Fedora.

But everyone will have their own opinion, best thing to do is research what you want and are looking for. Google, google, google! =)

oh yes, and with Fedora! YUM is your best friend for looking for new software, see the link in my signature! =)

Every major distro will fit your needs.
