- 04-12-2007 #28Haha. Perhaps I should explain that. I use Mac OS X for everyday things, and when I do use Linux, I generally want something I can install quickly in my Parallels VM, fire up and do something with it (like figuring out what menu option a user needs to choose to tweak something on Gnome or whatnot). For that purpose, Ubuntu works.

Once a distribution becomes useful for me, I no longer loathe it.

Debian on my server because it is hella easy to keep up-to-date.
When I am home from school I have dial-up, so on my little pentium 3 I run Linux Mint so I have codecs and DVD playback without having to download a bunch of stuff.
Desktop when I have fast internet: Slackware

Debian all around for me! It runs well everywhere I put it, be it as my desktop, or as a server. I have Testing for the desktop and Stable for the server, this way I keep a stable up to date desktop and an even more stable server.
I also play with Slackware on another computer. Never had good luck with RPM based distro though, I don't know why, but they always seem to explode when I install them."Today you are freer than ever to do what you want, provided you can pay for it!" --Bad Religion
