SuSE 8.0. (http://www.suse.com/index_us.html). 8.1 is available for preorder. Will be available 10.7. While both Mandrake and Red Hat are good releases, I have preferred SuSE since I switched from Debian. 1. It is stable. 2. The distro contains virtually all the softeware you will want. 3. Installation is straightforward. 4. System administration can be centralized through a system admin utility or decentralized through the normal ascii files. 5. Installation from either a set of 7 CDs or a single DVD. 6. Online updates either via YaST2 Online Update or fou4s (fast YOU). 7. Supports apt-get (downloadable separately).
