Since I have read up on Fedora, I'm inclined to wait and see how that works out after they straighten out the non-RH-compatible packages. Since Fedora is a sort of RH offshoot anyway, it could be just as good and the support may actually improve since the emphasis will be off Enterprise.

I like this one better (guess why):

If you want play with Linux, use one of the RPM based distros.
If you want to learn Linux, use Slackware.
Maybe we could get a poll on the nolug site or just have
people weigh in on the list on their OS.
