Which version of Linux are you using?
Was curious about what members of this forum are using.

Xubuntu 12.04, so I suppose "Other"!

Re: Which version of Linux are you using?
In retrospect maybe I should have placed more options. I got the top 10 based on DistroWatch and placed the rest under others .

Re: Which version of Linux are you using?
I'm almost always in the Ubuntu/Debian/Mint neighborhood because I'm used to them and don't have much time for distro hopping anymore. There are a lot of great distros though.
MSI 1651 -- Ubuntu 12.04
Asus EEEPC 900a -- Ubuntu 12.04
ASUS EB1033--Win7
Lenovo x120e -- Win7

Re: Which version of Linux are you using?
Arch for the last couple of months. Hopefully I won't have to hop again. This seems to be where most distrohoppers end up.
However, if I ever ran a server I'd use Debian or Ubuntu Server.

Re: Which version of Linux are you using?
the performance gains became negligible on more modern hardware. gentoo is a niche distro, at this point. i'm pretty sure arch picked up a lot of the gentoo/slackware refugees that wanted minimal systems minus the compiling. i'm a fan of gentoo, however. i just like the way it's layed out, portage is brilliant, and it just all makes sense.
but, right now, i'm running ubuntu 12.04 with xfce on my macbook air. probably going to switch to sabayon soon, because i just prefer the gentoo culture.
12.04 is brilliant, though. best ubuntu i've used in 4 years.

Re: Which version of Linux are you using?
I have PCLOS - KDE on my laptop and PCLOS - LXDE on an older desktop. Both are solid and stable. Running Ubuntu 12.04 in vbox and like it, but not enough to get me to switch.
