Choice of which Linux distribution is the same as the choice of
which car you want to drive. Some people want a shining car with
spoilers and take a Linux distribution which are similair. Some
people want a car which does only consist of a steering-wheel, an
engine and four tires and they add the rest themselves, they take
a different Linux distribution.

Depending on what you want you either take a full-blown-graphical-
blaat-blaat distribution or one which is command-line oriented and
you have to add the rest yourself.

But the only way to find out what kind of person you are is to
experiment, to try things out. There is nothing we can tell you to
use because we don't know you.
