Gentoo. Period :) I started out with slackware about 7 years ago, ran it for 2 years, then ran freebsd for 5ish, but i wanted something with a bit more "main stream/weird hardware/software" support so i decided to give a Linux a try. I must say that Gentoo is probably one of the most pleasurable linux experiences i've had to date, the package management is pretty sweet. Jeff.
