You could also try out CentOS, another RHEL variant. Looked neat to me when I saw it in some company's office... On 08/06/2009, Odhiambo ワシントン <odhiambo@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks guys. I still do not prefer ubuntu for reasons that I do not know. I may prefer fedora because of its neatness.
As for Mandriva, I will continue using it for a while, but every major issues seems to have one major problem with it. As for suse, it seems to be closer to mandriva, but a bit managed. as for now fedora looks attractive.
As for freeBSD, it seems that it is not geared for desktop use, but the best for server use.
If you'd like FreeBSD for Desktop usage, try PC-BSD[1] or DesktopBSD[2]. I'd personally recommend PC-BSD though as its update schedule (to be in sync with the latest FreeBSD release) is much faster.
PS: For the record, FreeBSD does not support as much hardware as Linux.
