    SuSE has been my main distro for quite a few years, I switched from
    rolling my own from version 0.0x to MCC to SLS to Caldera to RedHat to
    SuSE. Right now I'm using SuSE 9.2, Mandrake 10.1 and gentoo-2004.3 and
    all are excellent. A word about gentoo - I'd heard it was fast and
    excellent for learning about Linux. The install took ages (about 38
    hours on a Athlon 700/256M) with much less than half an hour of my
    keyboard time giving it hostname, IP addressing etc., if I was hoping to
    learn about Linux from that, I'd have learned nothing as it did it all
    by itself. Installing mythtv was as simple as typing "emerge mythtv" and
    let it do the rest, I thought I'd try something outlandish like mythtv
    just to see if I would hit a problem - none.
    Linux has got too easy by and large. Even as early as 1996, I installed
    linux on a PC in the office, the other guys used it frequently to get
    stuff on to a Solaris box.
    Regards
    Sid.
