With all the good word surrounding it, I’m slightly tempted by the idea of trying out Ubuntu, one of the newest Linux distributions. Apt-get with a major release window of every six months is always a good thing.
However, I will stick with Fedora, partially because Core 3 is due out within a week, but mostly because its Red Hat base is the one I have the most experience with, and therefore feel most comfortable with.
For all the religious wars that go on between distro fanboy camps, when you come right down to it there’s little you can do with one distro that you can’t with another, provided you know how to configure it properly. That’s part of the reason why I tend to fall back on Red Hat based distros, simply because they are where I’ve spent the most time.
