Red Hat, because it woorks well with my Hp Pavilion a6320n and the Fedora channel on irc.freenode.net is always full of the most helpful people,

best distro ....
Hi,

I am new here and I really am surprised tht Debian would rate so low. As far as I can see Debian is the 'god of operating systems'.

but then again these are my views. though I would encourage u to try debain once a while.

Thanks and regards,
Vaibhav

I like something that is customizable, that can boot quick and run demanding applications fast. More recently I 've been using slackware 12.1 on the machine I use for graphical cpu intensive apps, rendering 3d vector, etc.

I use ArchLinux (Arch Linux) for desktop and cpu intensive stuff (media file reformating mainly) and Debian for my web/mail server for it's stability.

Good choices- I have only recently started using Arch Linux, It does seem to perform well with cpu intensive applications. And Deb does run alot of applications well.
