    HI hpoter and welcome to LF

    The Linux distribution that is best for you is entirely up to you and your hardware. Just download a few Live CDs and give them a go, you will soon find a distribution you like.

    Hi and Welcome to the LinuxForums !

    We can't tell you which Linux distro is best for you. You can install any package in any distro. I would suggest you to try as many as you can and decide yourself.
    Btw, Fedora Core 4 is very old and not supported by Fedora Team now. Try Fedora 8 or CentOS.
    Check these Polls on Fav Desktop and Server Distros. Check the link in my signature too. I will get you going.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    You might face Hardware/software problems in Fedora Core 4. Use it untill you get latest version.
