I have been using Peanut Linux for several weeks (a 250Mb distro, quite good).

I learned a lot using it.

In the future I will probably standardize on RedHat. Just because it is the most
widely used. I don't believe in quantity of distros (and I don't believe in
quantity of Winboard engines either :), and it would be much better if there
were less of them, and if they were easier to use.

That will come anyway. So I'll go for RedHat (or maybe Mandrake) just because
they have loads of customers, and loads of resources to invest into making Linux
easier.
