Do you Ubuntu?

No, I "Mint"
( http://linuxmint.com/ )
for the following reasons:-
1. It is Ubuntu-based ( see Bob Warren's # 1 ),
2. It is "impure" (this means:
installing stuff like Real Player (which is Free, but
not open-source) is not a pain in the b*tt*m.
I have successfully run 17 different window managers
on Ubuntu so the
KDE/Gnome thingy doesn't really bother me:
I favour:-
Fluxbox or XFCE for programmers
and Enlightenment for people who "get off" on
eye-candy,
with Gnome for the vast majority of end-users.
sincerely, Richmond Mathewson.
