The most important thing I forgot to say... try them all, and decide what
you like the most.  Nothing's perfect for everybody.  

Nick: I'm curious, have you used Debian ?  

Is there anybody here who's used Debian, gotten to know apt, and decided
they still liked another Linux distro better ?

I really must get around to trying SuSE some day.

Oh yeah... Slashdot poll, "My favorite Linux Distribution is:"
http://slashdot.org/pollBooth.pl?qid=distro2&aid=-1

Top 3, in order:
1) SuSE
2) Debian
3) RedHat
