Talking I'm A Linux Freak

Hey Guys,

As Many of you know I am an avid collector of Linux distros... well I counted them today and discovered I had over 30! both Live and full installs. My goal is to reach 100!

I'll probably keep going...

I have 2 different distro's and 3 different full installs.

I would use Mandrake 10.1 before SuSE 9.3 (because its buggy) but I can't, for some dumb reason, find out how to get it to startx. It ALWAYS freezes or fails.

why do u even want to waste that much space? Most of the distro isn't worth looking at.. just go to distrowatch.com and just click download... nothing much going on there.. My goal is to use linux
