Unix Forms

Hi

Im new so be gentle

Just starting out in programing and i want to try unix to see what all the fuss is about.
But right now im like a kid in a sweet shop, spoilt for choice.

Theres red hat, fedora, linux, ubuntu and thats just for starters

I've been told ubuntu is a nice environment to program in but that was from someone who has been programing for a while.

Just let me know what you think of what you use.

Thanks
&
Happy Hacking
