Not just "six choices", Creepy, but /the same six choices/, year after year:

Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Debian, Arch, openSUSE

Like shitv said: "the top distros have barely changed in YEARS."

The rest of the *ridiculous" choices, not as popular.  There are around 
160 desktop distros listed in distrowatch.  It's beyond moronic.

Yes it did.  It was #58 at the time.  It debuted on the list at #11, I 
believe.

Yes.  And a software developer, and a DBA.  And better than you at all 
those disciplines.

Still waiting for you to respond to my Python challenge, you spineless 
'Little Beaver' wimp.

Another good poster that makes mincemeat of you pro-Linux idiots.

That's not what they say at your office, Creepy.  They insist on 
Windows, just like your clients and your family, and the families of 
most cola "advocates".
