About 6 months ago I studied the distribution wars on Usenet and then orderd 3 distros from one of the cheap CD companies in this list's FAQ. I ordered SUSE, Redhat, and Slackware and installed each one in turn. And I'm no closer to figuring out which is the "best" distro than I was before all that work. The never ending argument over the best distro on Usenet usually amounts to a series of claims by one group that the other distro doesn't do something and then proponents of the other distro saying that it does indeed do that. On and on like that. And I didn't get any impression that any of the 3 distros I tried was much easier to install than another. In fact, if one is easier than another, it's only because it takes some of the control away from you which may or may not be a good thing. There may be an answer to the question of which one is best for blind users but I don't anyone can say which one is the best over all.
