Was getting ready to reload Linux back on the old PC and was wondering which distro of linux is best and why. It will be for home use surfing the web checking e-mail ect. Not a production machine just home us.

Slackware is the greatest. Been using it for almost a year now and I've got to say, it's great. I would go with Waco's idea as it coincides exactly with mine. Mandrake for the noob, Slackware for the experienced, Gentoo for the brave ! Not my own, but something I read somewhere on the net, LinuxQuestions I guess. I'm still not up to using gentoo. It's a little too much trouble than I would care for. Like come on... 2 days for installing an OS? Not for me
