 I would recommend Centos. It's a brilliant Distro, comes in many flavours
is regularly updated and is as near as da** to RHEL.

Best of luck.

I've used in various guises for 4 years.

Evening all.....

I am helping out at a careers evening at a local school in Skipton in a
couple of weeks time - we will be presenting a stand and answering questions
about IT as a career. Since I'm dragging along a couple of boxes at least
one will be running Linux in some form.

I was going to take along a stack of CD's in case anyone asks what that
funny version of Windows is and would like to have a copy...:-) Ubuntu would
be the obvious choice I guess - easy to run and install, Live CD option etc
but would appreciate any other thoughts on a suitable distro, or indeed on
anything else. The students are as far as I know what I would call sixth
form, which I think is now Year 13?

Chris.
