Recently you heard about Linux and his advantages (open source - freeware - no potentials viruses - large community - especially fast and don't require the last configuration available...)
So you're getting more interested of it - you look for more information and finally you gather too many information
So now, you're hesitating : which distribution should I use? which one is more optimal for me? do I have to test all these distributions before getting the good one? Ubuntu? Mandrake? Redhat? Fedora? Mint? ...
That's too much questions

Here is a website to help you in your choice
In this website, you have to answer some questions and they will tell you the best linux distribution for you.
They ask about your skills - your habits - your needs - your kind of computer ... and finally, they will give a list of the best distribution for you
Don't worry, you will just spend 5 minutes to answer all of the questions and they will give a detail list for you.
These questions are destinated to newby in linux so you can answer easily.

I think it may help you (newby in linux) because answering questions about your needs is easier and faster than spending time on many forums about "what linux distribution should I use?"

Good luck on linux
