This (quite long) article has been written by me for two primary reasons: One, to hopefully save someone else the time and hassle associated with trying out various Linux distributions, and two, to promote some discussion and feedback regarding what a modern Linux distribution should be, and of course to contrast this with what is currently available. I am exploring the offerings of MS Windows, BeOS and MacOSX, and then taking on a number of well-known Linux distributions.

Now that was funny!
But seriously, of the Linux distros I like Mandrake for no other reason than it found all of my hardware (ATi All in Wonder Card, Epson Stylus C42 printer, dLink net card, Kyro Video Card, Firewire Card, SCSI card and Soundblaster Card) and even configured them correctly without me having to do anything. Redhat could not even figure out the video card without me having to manually configure it.
Too me this one step alone in the setup is worth my loyalty.
