Uhhhh that would be me 2. Fedora Core 4. Because my lasy azz can not update. Heck I went from 7.2 to 9 and then to core 1 to core 4.
But only the redhat folks will understand that.
Mr know it all you do not know it all because OSX is built from BSD. But we all make mistakes.

I do... I do professional work using 6 different versions of Linux
All MAC users do... OS/X is Debian Linux
Just about every professional website in the world is hosted on a Linux computer...
All Nokia cellphones do - they run Symbian - a version of Linux
Some Motorola and Samsung and other cellphones also run Symbian
A lot of new cellphones and PDAs coming out all run an embedded version of Linux that is not Symbian
The Sharp Zaurus line of PDAs runs Linux
Most ATM teller machines run Linux
Most cash register systems run Linux
Most VOD and TiVO devices run Linux
Some new watches run Linux
Most GPS systems are based on an embedded Linux release
Most mainframe computers run Linux, UNIX or a VMS version that is based on either Linux or UNIX
Linux is everywhere in our lives already, and in heavy use in every industry out there.
If you would like to try Linux without installing it, search in Google for "Linux Live CD" - you can find Linspire, Debian, Slackware and Ubuntu Live CDs very easily.

Linux is good OS, not much trouble like Windows does, but not much applications support.
If you looking for Server you pick Linux, for workstation or games still Windows

My family and friends.
Our favourite is UBUNTU (or XUBUNTU if the computer has less than 256MB of RAM).
It's a free, reliable and up to date operating system.
You can explore it from the "LIVE CD".
It's easy to install and use. You can dual boot it with other operating systems.
Once you have it installed, you gain access to thousands of free programs created by the open source community. There is excellent support - see the WIKI starter guide, and the Linux forums.
Always back up your data before making changes to your computer.

Me for one, I use it as exclusive OS on my laptop and a secondary OS on my XP desktop.
