I have been a redhat user since RH6, but i am using rh9 now and a little
bothered by the testbed of rh Fedora.

I want to get a new distribution that is easy to use. Not slackware
because its very command line intensive I hear. Not Suse because its
primarily German I hear. I am thinking about Debian.

Can you recommend a distro to me? I use linux mostly for Samba, and
firefox/thunderbird. I also use postgres on linux. It supports my
software development with verious server tools like postgres.

I use TightVNC to read my email and newsgroups from my windows box.


Is fedora actually a good choice for me? I have rebuilt the kernel many
times, but im worried that with Fedora how do I stay stable and up to date
as well?
