A Beginner's Guide to Choosing a Linux Distribution (DistroWatch)

DistroWatch has updated the "Beginner's Guide to Choosing a Linux Distribution". Those new to Linux are often overwhelmed by the choices available to them. This handy resource helps reduce some of the confusion by looking at several distributions that could be good for beginners. "The bewildering choice and ever increasing number of Linux distributions can be confusing for those of you who are new to Linux. This is why this page was created. It lists 10 distributions, which are generally considered as most widely used by Linux users around the world. There are no figures to back it up and there are many other distributions that might suit your particular purpose better, but as a general rule, all of these are popular and have very active forums or mailing lists where you can ask questions if you get stuck."
