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.

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.

Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I would "like" that SO HARD if there were only a button for 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.)
