I'm an old subscriber just getting back onto the list after a year of
absence. My original Linux system, a 486, was destroyed in a flood several
months ago, and I'm contemplating a new install on a newer system on which
I'm now running Windows 2000 Pro. I ran RH6 on the old machine. I want to
use this new system as a file server, Linux testbed, and development system
for Apache-based online content.

Since I have been away from Linux for a while, what's new in the last year?
What distro does everyone like these days? Is RH still on top, or is the
lead changing?

The machine: Intel DK440LX dual-processor motherboard with 266M PIII's, 256M
RAM, 8M IDE HD, integrated NIC, 2 integrated SCSI buses, integrated Crystal
audio. The video controller is an ATI Rage Pro AGP 2X. Do current Linuces
have support for dual-processor mobos and this set of devices?
