AngSephirX:
Over the past few months ive been thinking about switching to Linux and I think its about time I gave it a try.  Which version would be the best for a completely new user to Linux?  Is there anything else that would be useful to know before jumping into this?

Calum:
and there's a lot for you to get used to but the best way id to install linux somewhere where it won't matter if it messes up, then mess around with it big time, read newbie guides on the internet, your distro of linux probably comes with a huge amount of readmes too. if you have used any Unix type system before, you're laughing, as linux is virtually identical to most other unices in most ways that matter.

Master of Reality:
redhat is the best for new users in my opinion.

Ice-9:
I would agree with that.

Calum:
"what's the best distro"? how many times has this been asked?

i am tempted to bin this but i won't because i don't want to make angsephirix feel insulted (whom i have nothing against at all).
