It depends if you are a new or experienced user of linux. A new user might like to try Mepis, PCLinuxOS, Ubuntu. More experienced users might look to Sidux, Arch, Dreamlinux. This is from my own experience, and I bet everyone here has their favorites. I usually read through distrowatch, and when I see a distro that interests me, I'll download the iso and give it a live try. The only way you'll find out which distro works best, is to try them. hope this helped. Tom
