stewart a asked:

I have heard here that Ubuntu is probably the best for beginners; however, Fedora Core is also easy to learn. But unfortunately I can only choose from the below as its a setup on lycos dedicated servers

Debian 3.0 (Woody)
Debian 3.1 (Sarge)
RedHat Fedora Core 2
RedHat Fedora Core 3
Mandriva LE 2005 (Mandrake)
RedHat 9.0

If Debian what one sarge or woody or maybe red hat Keep in mind while not stupid I have been on a coldfusion setup untill I crossed over to the dark side.

icy asked:

How many gigs does it take for:
Vista
Windows XP
Ubuntu
Fedora
Debian

Also,
I heard ubuntu 7.04 was 3 gigs or somethings, and that vista was only 2. I thought linux was always smaller than anything Microsoft. Can anyone verify that as well? I could be wrong.

I’m fairly novice with Linux. I’ve used Ubuntu before, and I’m thinking about building a Linux box out of spare parts that I have. I was thinking about getting Debian Linux. What would you guys recommend?
