How to choose the best Linux distro for you

,----[ Quote ]
| Choice is the best thing about Linux. Without choice, we may as well use an 
| operating system where the developers make those choices for us. As we've 
| covered in the past, anyone can create a Linux distribution. If it is 
| different enough, it will survive, but most disappear without a trace. There 
| is a flip side to all this choice however, and that's finding the time to 
| find the perfect distribution for you. You really need to try several before 
| setting on the one you prefer, and downloading, installing and testing a 
| Linux distribution takes a lot of time.

Ubuntu 9.04 vs Zenwalk 6.0: performance

,----[ Quote ]
| I know that Ubuntu and Zenwalk should not be compared because there are a lot 
| of differences between them. Ubuntu uses gnome and Zenwalk xfce. Xfce is more 
| lightweight than gnome and Zenwalk tries to be a lightweight distribution.

| [...]
| 
| The difference between Ubuntu and Zenwalk as far as performance goes is 
| pretty small which is really a surprise, everyone says Zenwalk is much faster 
| that Ubuntu.
