Best Linux OS

[Tinuva]

btw, for those of you who like Ubuntu, but not Unity or the Desktops from Mint, there is another alternative that kinda mimics OSX:

Pear Linux 6, also based on Ubuntu 12.04.

There isn't a best Linux. It's what is suitable to the server or PC you're setting up. I however prefer CentOS and Ubuntu.

Definitely Linux Mint 13 definitely gets my vote.

I've tried the development versions of elementary OS Luna and it looks 100 times improved from Jupiter...I think they have something good up their sleeves.

I don't think so. Even the core LIBC library in Ubuntu 12.04 is newer than that in Debian testing (thats not even mentioning the kernel...). Most of Ubuntu is probably built by themselves nowadays, although I am sure if Debian does something, Ubuntu will probably look at porting it over to themselves.

sid is unstable as the below shows

Yes. They take a snapshot of Sid. They have also synced to Testing (Wheezy) before. http://askubuntu.com/questions/1147/...debian-testing

I'm probably going to try Mint next!

I wont lie. Im quickly losing confidence in CentOS. Their **** way of dealing with Python annoys the crap outta me. I have to jump through hoops just to freeken install rdiff. Really now!? Debian ftw! I just wish they made cPanel for Debian
