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.
How can anyone take a reviewer seriously that doesn't even test the products in the comparison? His remarks about doodling with OS X make me believe he hasn't sat behind an OS X for more than a few hours, ever. Get real, this review is a waste of time...back your "review" up with some real data of your own instead of culling a bunch of misconceptions from the web and typing them up as being original and informative.
