There are many varieties of Linux from all over the world and while we try to list them all we may overlook some. If you are working on a linux distro (of any size) and you are not in this list please mail us a link to your site and a brief description and we'll include it.
Desktop and Server Linux
Possibly the most famous Linux distribution, Redhat have achieved an excellent
reputation for reliability. They have also invested a lot of time in developing
and spreading Linux and were responsibile for the invention of the RPM (Redhat
Package Manager) software installation system that has been declared the standard
Linux distribution system.
Suse must hold the record for the most comprehensive Linux box set with
over 3000 applications included on 7 C.D.s and 1 DVD in their SuSE Linux
7.3 Professional distribution. SuSE have also provided more documentation
than anyone could reasonably expect and all this for under £60. Check
out the SuSE page for other excellent products such as SuSE mail server and
Firewall on a CD.
Mandrake Linux has achieved a reputation for ease of use and represents
the simplest path for Windows users looking to switch over to Linux. Mandrake's
easy to use configuration tools and excellent Mandrake Expert online support
service makes this the most recommended choice for newcomers
