Thank you for the feedback everybody! :)

Yea, I noticed that Ubuntu has been at the top for some time. And I like it's meaning. In English, it roughly translates into "humanity towards others" -- see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_(ideology) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_%28ideology%29>. Anyway, I'm thinking that's where I'll start. At work, I did Solaris for 2 years and been on HP-UX for the last 3 years. I LOVE GNU/Linux compared to HP-UX. The tools on the HP-UX 11i machines at my job are SO poor!
