So I just installed Ubuntu Linux on my old PC, and I am totally blown away. In the past six years, this PC has run Red Hat, SuSE, Mandrake, Storm Linux, Rock, VectorLinux, and (most recently) Debian. (I think I may have missed one or two. Oh, and I didn't count live distros like DemoLinux and Knoppix.) I thought I had finally settled on Debian about a year ago, but then Ubuntu upped the ante. Ubuntu has all of the latest software I want (Python 2.4.1, Firefox 1.02+, etc.), and the whole thing just looks slick. All of the benefits of Debian (apt-get, Synaptic), but none of the drawbacks, i.e. OLD packages.
