Which linux to install

I'm contemplating about installing Linux (again) on my computer. But I'm not sure which version to install.

User simplicity isn't a problem at all, I use Linux a lot of Linux live CDs just to experiment, but I can't think of which distro to install. I'm thinking of using it to run a couple of PSX emulators, maybe even a small internal web server.

Please help me to decide.

 

hi man u install the suse linux u ll get gr8 experience with u and ll learn with it more easily.

 

maybe pclinuxos. its easy as hell to use. but my REAL advice would be to get away from linux all together and come to the darkside of BSD. FreeBSD to be exact.

 

Try Ubuntu 8.04.

mandriva is the one i use

and

are a couple of guides

 

I agree 100%
It is very quick and complete.
In fact it may be the distro that makes me drop Windows permanently.

using Edubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron, annnd loving it! :drool

 

There is a newer version than 2007...

download Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring Free,


I may have to try this out. In a few weeks AFTER I get back off vacation!
