What's your favorite distribution? How much do you know about Linux? Has your bedroom turned into a cybernetic organism because of it?
My favorite distro for a long time was Arch. It gave you an immense amount of control over your system, and was the next best thing to building from scratch. Its only weakness was the Pacman package manager. It was really easy to use, don't get me wrong, and you got cutting-edge stuff with it. However, it had the unfortunate tendency to pull down lots of unneeded dependencies. Recently, they tossed their installation program, so you now set up the entire system from the command line. I'm not sure if that was such a great idea, as it can put off a lot of beginners.
Other than that, I like to look at distros that aren't based on other distros. Debian and Slackware come to mind immediately. So does Tiny Core Linux, which is great for something like a 486. (Yes, I have a working 486 ). What others can you think of?
