Favorite Linux

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

[moved to General Ramblings]

I use Ubuntu and CentOS at work. I prefer Ubuntu x64 for my personal computers.
I started with Knoppix, that was a nice OS (although a bit... German iirc). SlackWare is the Linux of choice for me on ancient hardware, or hardware without decent video support.

Red Hate Enterprise Linux

Performant, Clean, Great Hardware Compatibility, Excellent Backward Compatibility

Devoid of the number of useless packages present in free distros (bar Ubuntu, it's pretty clean), and with real media Codecs, JVM, etc. (unlike the free distros).

I need to add another hard drive to my development machine soon, so I can dual boot :P
