Yes, we all know the "big three" (Red Hat, Mandrake, SuSE) commercial distros, we also know the next big bunch of respected traditional/geek distros (Debian and Slackware and some might add Gentoo too in this list), and we know the "other big three" in the desktop Linux area (Lindows, Xandros, Lycoris). However, not everyone knows what is available besides this "threshold". Here is a list of Linux distros that worth knowing about and to keep an eye on!

Absolutely the best "distro" IMNSHO. I think I have learned more about how Linux really works from LFS than I have since I started using commercial distros way back in 97. Not to mention that if you can follow instructions, it's very easy to have an optimized system up in a very short time.
