I understand completely now and can relate to seeing "THAT thing" in a woman.

Thumbs up Debian

Runs in every machine I have at home, and only 1 is a PC (x86)

Well... I'm voting for (K)Ubuntu, because of it's precept, and it's simplicity. It's easy to use for everyone.

But I still love slackware and Gentoo ;-)

I got my start about a year ago in Linux with Red Hat. I downloaded Fedora 4 awhile back and I like it very much. I tried Suse 10 but found the GUI to busy for my taste.

LFS, SLak, Gentoo, Debian.
Though I've checked out Vector, Unubtu, Kubuntu, Xandros, FC4 also in the last 3 months.
[ Got myself a contract to write articles targeted at Linux Nubes, so I've been looking at more distros to evaluate them with nubes in mind ]

Suse 10 is the one for me. Funny I never used it before it was Open.
