I've been using my Linux for a few months and I've tried different distros searching for a suitable one. When I first installed Mandriva, I was really captured by it! I've chosen it for 3 reasons:
1) it is extremely easy to use especially for people new to Linux. It seems as though Mandriva is saying to you: just work and don't be worried! I'll take care of everything; 2)It's really beautiful! Just have a look! 3) it cannot be explaied: something within me whispered - That's it!!! |

I use Ubuntu because it really is friendly for a newbie like me. I've gotten a lot of helpful advice from their online community, too. I also love the lean compactness of Damn Small Linux for emergency jobs on Windows machines and popping in and out of a danger zones like cyber cafes. Trust this is helpful. The beauty of the Unix/Linux world is that it flexs to suit whatever the user needs. Vive la difference.

Debian
For anyone new to gnu linux. don't feel you are limited to using Ubuntu because of its easy installation and ease of use.
Debian has never been easier to install. The Debian Lenny release I think is the slickest Debian release yet. If you can manage to install Ubuntu, you can install Debian Lenny. If you are new and like how easy the Ubuntu desktop is to use, you will be surprised at how easy Debian has become. Debian just takes a little longer to install with the net install disc. I have found the new Debian to be a first class distro. Very smooth, everything works the way it should, with no tweaking. Debian Forever. |
