What is your favorite linux desktop system?
Suse
Mandriva
Ubuntu
Others....
I'm thinking of transitioning to a fully linux based office and have tried mandriva but would love opinions of other systems
Thanks
According to me, Ubuntu has an incredible large and active community, which leads to a very good community support if something goes wrong. But of course there are other factors which should influence you in your decision.
How many workstations are ou talking about?
Will you also migrate your servers?
How experienced are your system administrators with linux?

Yes, it would be a full transition, workstations, servers, etc. I've fooled with linux a bit, can run commands, fairly familiar with file structure. Number of workstations would be small to start, a few, but could grow. Would not do web serving though, will use host for that.ckonig wrote:According to me, Ubuntu has an incredible large and active community, which leads to a very good community support if something goes wrong.

I am also using Ubuntu software. It's great especially since it is Linux it is not prone to any viruses.
Zorin OS is definitely the best

hi, what i would say over the years I've found that it matters very little which Linux distribution we use when being dealt a heavy data loss. Clearly the importance of data backup is right up there with remembering to secure a network or making sure current software patches are applied.
In short, it's a pretty darned big deal.
But rather than dwell on the obvious downsides to revisiting one’s hindsight in losing data, I've decided instead to focus on the best backup utilities available for Linux on the desktop – software you’ll need before the big crash.

Debian all the way. Ubuntu used to be good, but it is getting way too bloated. Now I'm back to debian w/ openbox. I like gnome but gnome3 doesn't support multiple monitors that well.
Crunchbang is also good and very clean, but the developer is on hiatus so I use Debian Testing and install the crunchbang package to pull in their package selection.
