    shud it be debian or fedora?

    Hey guys

    I so want to dive into linux, infact i am already in, how ever i am confused about the favour.

    I had red hat 4 but it slowed down my laptop , i wonder why

    amd 1.86 ghz 64 turion
    750 mb ddr
    40 gb hdd

    i went ahead for fedora core 5 but some how i always feel debian is a pure form of linux.

    i wanna build up a career too...so which one do u guys vote for.

    please help out and will appreciate if u cud tell me the reason behind u r answers.!

    Use FC to grasp the feel of Linux and once you get more comfortable try Debian.

    I'm a real Debian fanboy, but RedHat is what mostly gets used in business, so go for RedHat if you want to be well versed in the distro that you're most likely to use in the workplace.
    Stand up and be counted as a Linux user!
