I really like Fedora. It's basically Red Hat but with some extras. It comes with OpenOffice.org1.1 and Gimp. Both work very well and very smoothly. I don't think it has Blender prepackaged, but I'm sure it would work just fine if you downloaded the binary. In fact, let me get back to you on that one.... I'm going to try Blender in Fedora right now and see how well it works.
Well, um, Blender didn't work. Not yet, at least. It's crying for a c++ library file. I believe this topic is mentioned in the Fedora threads. You might try that if you believe Fedora is a good option.
If blender doesnot work I have a big problem. But I hope this is problem which will be solved in the future. Lets wait for a few months - a new blender may arrive and it can be compiled too. But if not I need to think some other release like mandrake or debian.
