Most popular GNU/Linux distros nicely outlined
« on: January 16, 2008, 09:49 PM »
PolishLinux.org has an excellent intro to the most popular GNU/Linux distros in capsule summary, followed by a more detailed outline of each distro's distinctive features. Some of the info needs updating, but the core is there (w/links) for a glance.

Looks nice.

For those who don't already know about it, check out DistroWatch as well. It is the most comprehensive listing on the web for *nix distros.

tinjaw's right: DistroWatch is the go-to source. PolishLinux.org is a good starting point for beginners and newcomers to GNU/Linux.
