I am running Gentoo on most of the machines (that's my main distribution).<br>On my friend's laptop I am running PC Linux OS - amazing distro, check it <br>out! Second most popular on DistroWatch (after Ubuntu).<br>
Currently I have Gentoo working on my MacBook and studio G5 (PowerPC rules!).<br>I have an Ubuntu Studio desktop as well. If anyone asks to install OS onto the <br>machine for him or her I always install Ubuntu.<br><br>vladimir<br>

So, just to make some noise now that this seems getting alive. Just<br> out of curiosity I would like to make a small survey:<br> <br> What Linux Flavour (distribution) do you use/prefer. If you use<br> several, which one is the one you like most?<br>
<br> I'll start with myself:<br> <br> I use Ubuntu 7.10 in my laptop. Kubuntu 7.10 in my "university" laptop<br> and Fedora 6 in my university workstation. Personally I prefer Ubuntu<br> (with Gnome) because it seems to have (IMO) good hardware<br>
compatibility and forums. Kubuntu seems a bit incomplete for me<br> because (it seems as if they just put some KDE apps on top of Ubuntu<br> but it is not really QA tested).<br> <br> BTW, for the people new to Ubuntu, anytime you look for a program, try<br>
to look for it *first* in "Synaptic". It is so really very easy to<br> install software (provided that you have an internet connection). I<br> say this because, being familiar with Windows, I sometimes lost a lot<br>
of time looking for the ".deb" or ".rpm" (the installers for Linux,<br> more or less equivalent of Win .MSI) of a program just to find a lot<br> of trouble (dependencies mostly). If the program is in Synaptic,<br>
installing it is as easy as selecting and clicking a button.<br> <br> Regards,<br> <br> Omar.<br> <br> --<br> Omar Baqueiro Espinosa<br> Computer Science PhD Candidate<br> Computer Systems Engineer<br> Workpage: <a href="http://www.csc.liv.ac.uk/~omar/">www.csc.liv.ac.uk/~omar/</a><br>
