please tell thats fake!

anyway. it all depends on how experienced you are. if you're new to linux, try red hat or suse. if you're not new, then probably any distro.

Dr kelso; Didn't you get my memo about looking professional, and whereing your lab coat at all times?

Dr. Cox; well you know what? i did...and i threw it away. But then i didn't feel like that was a strong enough gesture so i erected a life like figure of you out of straw, put my lab coat on it, put your memo in the pocket, and invited all the local neighborhood children to light it on fire and beat it with sticks!

heard it on Scrubs, quite possibly the funniest show on tv

I like the web site

www.distrowatch.com

it give descriptions of many of the different distributions.  Which is best for you really depends on what you are going to do with it.  You can't lose with Redhat, but many beginners also enjoy Mandrake and Suse.  There are also many who say slackware is the best.  FreeBSD (a near linux) might be best for a pure server.
