I am not stating that Linux is better than everything else. This is like asking which release of Windows is better, so no 'Linux sucks' posts. And besides, most people who bash Linux have no idea what they are talking about, and as such, have no value to their opinions.

My personal favorite is Kubuntu. Yes, I know. It's very common, but I really like the KDE interface, as opposed to Gnome or text.

Personally, I like anything in the KDE environment, but Kubuntu has that ease of use that Ubuntu has.

However, for different applications like large-scale networking or working exclusively from a command line, other distributions would probably be better.

Red Hat based distributions like Fedora just make more sense to me in terms of they way things stick together, and I like the selection of packages in Fedora, and the way things work and such.

As for hardware issues, I generally don't have them, but then I generally don't buy hardware unless I know it will work with Linux.

So, what release of Linux do you think is best? Please specify the specific release, after voting for the general set.

But in reality, my distro is pretty much a better rip off of Ubuntu, uses synaptic, etc...Basically it's pretty much minimalistic. The basic install, is all the necessary components, with the wireless configuration built in, just stripped down.
Uses Gnome with Compiz, blah.

But I do use Gentoo aside from my own custom build.
