Linux distro diffs

[Joel Dudley]

You need to divulge a bit more info about yourself and what you are looking
for.  Personal preference plays a big role in your distro selection in my
opinion.  Also, what are you going to do with it?  Going to run it on
PowerPC?  if so, you are then limited in your choices.  I would be glad to
share my personal experiences with you concerning this topic.
