I have a lot of questions
 
1) What is the best linux distro for a Mac? I have an iMac 333MHz.

2) What is the best linux distro for a powerbook 100 MHz?

3) Are there any Mac OS X look alike themes for any linux distros?

4) Is there anything like a taskmanager in linux so as to force-quit some applications?

Thanks in advance

Mandrake 9.1 is an excellent distro with a lot of hardware support. :)

3) There are so many Aqua themes for various window managers and programs like GKrellm and media playing apps that it almost hurts! ;)
I made one too, for Fluxbox. :D (Problems with the Freshmeat upload atm though :()

4) You can use the terminal/console command to list the processes and then kill them, or send various signals. Man top, ps and kill. :)

How do I know what jobs are running or how do i find out a PID for an application?

Man top, ps, kill. ;)

Really, top or ps will get that. ps -aux will get just about everything.
