Linux users
What's your favorite distro and why? I was using Ubuntu for awhile but switched over to Arch Linux about a month ago and fell in love with it.

Centos for servers, Ubuntu for desktops
I started out using Slackware when I had to download it from Usenet to floppy disks for install! |

I use Ubuntu on one comp but recently built a new a dual boot Debian 6.2/Windows7 -- Debian is stable and fast, not big on the eye candy but a very professional and secure distro. Bottom line, I am impressed with Debian it is available in versions for both servers and desktops, uses apt-get and many other programs similar to my Ubuntu system. (Ubuntu is a Debian based LINUX as are many others.) |

It's based on Mint/Ubuntu. I like it because I am busy with other stuff and don't really want to spend hours customizing my OS to my liking. Pinguy is almost exactly what I would turn my OS into if I had the time to sit and tweak it for hours on end. Fortunately for me it's already done. |

People are fans of different distros just like there are fana of Windows, Linux, and Mac, so you may not get much USEFUL comparison on a forum. Let me say this, though - the top three or four most popular are popular for a reason. So it makes sense to choose one of the well-liked distros unless you have a specific reason to chose an oddball.
Also, if you go to download some software or you want to find a howto you'll probably find a version for Centos/Red Hat/Fedora, a version for Ubuntu, and maybe one for Debian. So using one of the most popular gives you those resources. If you choose a distribution that noone has ever hard of that's based on some other distro that's not in the top three, support and program packages are going to be a lot harder to find. The oddballs may be good for some specific purpose, but for general use it's good to have a million other users helping you, posting about any issues, etc.
