haven't installed ubuntu yet. i have 9 copies coming in the post though and 1 somewhere on my desk.

mandriva is much easier to install than suse or fedora core imho

Both can be configed to do the same

But Mandrivia is most compatible for me, detects all my hardware except tv-tuner, who cares about user-friendly these days...

all u need is a cmd line editor and good typing skills

Thier basically the same thing, Just different GUIs
But mandrakes(Mandriva) user interface was known for its 'User Friendlyness'

But ja be proudly south africa, go UBUNTU :p

I'll go with Mandriva... Although I'll rather say Suse VS Mandriva
