I have attempted to use Ubuntu many times but never stick with it. What builds of Linux do you all use?
My friend suggested Mint. _________________ "Fuckin' Amesome" --- Joe Flacco

We use Ubuntu and RHEL at work. Using RHEL is like switching back to Windows 98. I mostly hate it. Ubuntu is alright though. |

Linux Mint. It's like a cool breeze on your balls on a hot August day. It's like that teacher you had a crush on in fourth grade. It's like your third car, if it was your first car. It's like a free upgrade to First-Class. It's like getting a Porterhouse when you ordered a Sirloin. It's like your toilet is suddenly a bidet. _________________ We live in an amazing, amazing world, and it's wasted on the crappiest generation of spoiled idiots. -- Louis CK

Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man. _________________ "What cheers me up? Um... I suppose mainly gloating over the misfortunes of other people. I guess that has to be it.

Raspian. But only because the only thing I have running linux is a Raspberry Pi.
I'm running Win7 Enterprise on the beast, and I have a MacBookPro running Snow Leopard that I never turn on. (It's awesome to not need a laptop because I don't go to sea.) _________________ A west bean pays the fish a soup. |
