Cool, Netware still lives, just out of interest which of the above is your favourite?
OpenBSD innit. Install in 10 minutes, configure in 5. But I'm quite fond of Netware as well. Its a pipe-smoking, cardigan-wearing, mild-mannered kind of an OS with hidden depths and high reliability (IME).
I've got Mandrake 8.0 with the latest Freq pack on my laptop. I bought it because the PowerPack comes bundled with ViaVoice, but at the moment it segfaults during the first `training' session. I haven't had time to give it the kicking it deserves, but I'm worried that all those years of Capstan full-strength have put my dulcet tones beyond 21st technology.
Mandrake's OK, but part of me wishes I'd stuck with my RedHat 6.2 install and tried to bodge ViaVoice on to that.
