Favorite distro so far is Mandrake. I started out with 8.1 and found it a bit too challenging for me so I read everything I could get my hands on and came back for 9.1, and was very impressed with it's ease of use and how polished it is. I've tried just about every version of Red Hat since 7.3 but always go back to Mandrake. Now that I've used it a while though I'm starting to feel that it's a little too newbieish and need more of a challenge unfortunately my harddrive is not big enough for an additional distro on it. I am also less than thrilled with how Mandrake is with upgrading, I'd rather not have to do a fresh install everytime a new version comes out. I'm leaning towards Debian for my next distro. I keep putting it of though because Debian frightens me :wink: .
