Linux Distro's
I am going to use a Linux distro in my laptop and was thinking which one to use?
Ubuntu looks boring to me, although it does work ok (have used it on vmware) PC-BSD looks like it could be a good choice for me Anyone have any other flavours that they can recommend, and why you would recommend them? Thanks

Stick to Ubuntu for laptops.
Seems to have the best laptop support (sound, suspend/hibernate, battery monitoring, etc etc) |

Try Linux Mint, it's based on Ubuntu but looks and feels much more elegant.

"boring"?
What do you consider exciting in an operating system? |

I went with the whole Linux Ubuntu thing a few months ago with an extra laptop I had lying around. Stupid programs that I use didn't work so instead of re-loading XP Professional, I re-load with TinyXP Christmas Edition 2008.
My laptop is blazing fast and all the programs I use work. The WINDOWS folder is only 600mb.
