Re: [PLUG] Linux/UNIX OS choice


Andrew,
For someone new, I would recommend Mandrake or Redhat, because of its
simple Installation procedure(s). For more advanced users, I would say
Debian or Slackware (yuck!). If you want to learn Unix, Linux is the way
to go, although FreeBSD is nice too.

Goodluck
Naresh
