I personally have experience with RedHat and I think that it is the best for me. What is best for you really depends on what you want to use it for. If you are simply trying to get a taste of what Linux is all about then I think that either Corel or RedHat are the best options. If you are thinking about running a server, then I think that I would go with Caldera or Redhat. They are all pretty solid, but all in all, I believe that RH, Corel, and Caldera are probabally the best bets. Hope I was of some help. -Jake Albert Mues wrote: > I'm giving Linux a chance. > But wich one should I choose : > 1. CorelLinux (tried it but I'm not convinced it is a good thing) > 2. Mandrake > 3.
