Arch Linux! My favorite. I also use Sidux. Never really cared for any of the rpm based systems....

I've had to move this year. It was FC but because of my epc it's Xandros now. Still on the FC at home/work but the epc goes with me everywhere and is my internet contact.

Debian and Ubuntu for me. I've tried a few others, including Fedora and OpenSolaris, but nothing about them has made me want to abandon Debian. I did pinch the panel backgrounds from OpenSolaris, though...

.tar.bz2 version:
Debian ftw.
Decompressed version:
Well, I've tried a ridiculous number of distros...Red Hat 5.1 was my first, other than it didn't even finish the installation...last year I tried Ubuntu 7.1 and loved it. But, I'm a performance/tiny size FON (freak of nature), thx to 386-era hardware beginnings, so I switched to Debian.
Tried Linux Mint, PCLinuxOS, Dmn Small Linx, Sidux, Arch, SliTaz, early Puppy, and a few others.
So far I keep coming back to Debian on my main PC, but I'm planning on giving Arch another shot on one of my testing machines.

I've been using Ubuntu for the last 3 years. I'm trying AntiX, but it refuses to let me log in, so I'm running it from the live cd right now. I'll have to see what's going on in /etc/passwd.

I use most Puppy.
Puppy is small, very quick, it runs good on old but also on new computers, it does everything I need (and even much more), it is well documented (in case of problems) good forums, easy (intuitively) to use....
