Which distro would you recommend a user coming over from Windows?

Today, I got this question. The person has been a developer on the Windows platform for many years and is comfortable both with RTFMing and using the command line.

As much as I liked to scream Arch Linux!!! Or failing that, Debian!!! I actually said ... Ubuntu.

  • Comes pre-installed on Dell and Lenovo laptops
  • Great OOTB experience
  • Great online resources as well as printed books.
  • Even some commercial software has an Ubuntu version.

What do you think?
