I tried Red Hat 7.0 but I didn't like it and there were security updates like crazy and it just became too much of a hassle for me. Especially being a newbie with any type of unix/linux systems. Not too long ago I tried Mandrake 8.0 and I know alot of people say that there are security issues with Mandrake but I must say it is about the best for a newbie. It was easy to install and you could actually find your way around a little better. One of these days I am going to get back into it, but I have too much going on right now.
