Back
Fedora Core 3 here. It IS the best. :)
IMO... it's the most supported, most current, most user friendly and
things just generally work on it (as far as linux goes). Don't let
Alan mislead you into thinking that gentoo is easy by any stretch of
the word. It's very stable when you get it up and running correctly
because you basically have to compile things from scratch with it.
It's a bitch to get up correctly... *read: drivers* trust me.
In case you didn't know Fedora is the newest version of redhat.

Take care
p.s. Nothing personal Alan but I wipe my butt with the gentoo documentation :)
