I plan on writing a series of Linux distro reviews to follow alongside my master classes (if i have time, alot of shite just got kicked up for me atm :/ )
I want to give readers an opinion on various distros, including some live CDs so they can gauge what might be a useful starting point for them, and where they might want to progress, some contenders for my reviews are as follows

Slax (Live CD)
Knoppix (Live CD)
Red Hat Fedora Core 1
Red Hat Fedora Core 2
Debian
Debian SARGE (testing)
Libranet (Debian Based, apparantly very good)
Mandrake (if i ever get it working)
Slackware
Suse (maybe, i dont use it enough)
FreeBSD
OpenBSD (servers mainly)

these will not be long super reviews, although some will, but they will mainly focus on areas i feel new linux users require the most input
The Installation, Package Management, and your ability to do daily tasks out of the box! expect the first one to follow soon
im awaiting word from Libranet for a review copy

Sounds great, if you need anything give me a shout.

 

You da man, Phoenix!

 

I look forward to reading your reviews, as I'm going to play around with Linux for the next computer I build.

Well done that man! Life is just TOO busy to do anything like that here.
"if i have time, alot of shite just got kicked up for me atm :/" we all know that feeling - just blaime IT

Red Hat Fedora 2 and Mandrake are my 2 usual distros - why? No idea just there the ones I know and love - We use RedHat V9 at work and I use Mandrake on a PC at home. Installed a dreal for me.
