Debian is a really good distro, but currently I run Slackware 9.0.

dpw2atox is on a distinguished road

i run redhat 9 on my desktop due to the quick install and how there are rpms for everything. I also have apt-get for rpm installed to give me some debian functionality. As for my DSL router I am running debian woody which I find very stable.

I run knoppix HD installed which is really debian.
I love the apt-get too although I have had some problems.

SuSe i like the most as a desktop operating system, for servers i use Redhat (or FreeBSD/OpenBSD, but that's more unix style)
