Linux Distribution Comparisons Four Linux Distrobutions I know. It's been such a long time since I used Linux.

Yes, this comparison is biased. Only because Gentoo is such a pain in the behind to install. One little mistake and the whole install is killed. gOS is my favorite because it's speed and the Mac-based interface.

I am setting this to an Open comparison because I could figure out how many languages Yoper is written in. If anyone knows, feel free to add it.

I don't plan to add any more distros because I am not familiar with most of them.
