Choosing the Distribution

LINUX : Choosing the Distribution

         Most of the Linux distributions come with a so-called ‘base system’ that comprises most of the software the computer user would need. These distributions are up to date with new drivers and software.

                Ubuntu, Fedora, SuSE are some of the popular Linux Operating Systems, they are generally considered to be easy to use ‘user friendly’ to use by a newbie, even though they still have the power tools that a advanced users can used.

                    Hardware compatibility is one aspect about using Linux. Most of the hardware is supported by default in most Linux distributions, less popular or old hardware might not work.

                There are I thinks there’s about a hundreds of distributions available, and each have it’s own differences. Choosing the right distributions might seem difficult, its up to you where will you need it or what you want to have for example for multimedia creation for low specification computers.
